Abstract
The image of the crane (stork) is associated with the most ancient ideas, has spread among different peoples. This is one of the symbols of Vietnamese culture, the sacred bird Lak, whose images are present on the bronze drums, resembles a crane. In Vietnam, there are still sculptures in temples depicting a turtle with a Lac bird on its shell. The image of the crane was used by Buddhism. A lonely crane in Confucianism is a hint of a major dignitary dissatisfied with his fate, perhaps retired and therefore inclined to Taoism. Cranes (especially white ones) are considered to be the birds on which the Taoist immortals fly. Nguyen Trai's poems mention the yellow crane.
