Hue (VNA) – The Hue Monuments Conservation Centre on November 21 launched a series of exhibitions and heritage education activities to mark the 20th anniversary of Vietnam Cultural Heritage Day (November 23, 2005 – 2025).

Among the exhibitions are the one about the Nguyen Dynasty’s Co Mat Vien - one of the most significant administrative institutions of the Nguyen Dynasty (1802 - 1945) and a heritage education programme that offers students and visitors an opportunity to learn about Co Mat Vien.

Meanwhile, the “Donated artefacts” exhibition showcases more than 50 notable items selected from nearly 500 artefacts donated to the centre since 1995. The display expresses gratitude to individuals and organisations at home and abroad who have contributed to the preservation of Hue’s cultural heritage.

Meanwhile, the painting exhibition “Net Hue 3” features 40 works by lecturers, artists and students from the University of Arts under Hue University. Through contemporary artistic expressions, the works highlight the cultural identity and gentle charm of the former imperial capital.

The activities, held as part of the “Heritage Week” in Hue, aim to spread heritage values within the community while creating a platform for cultural exchange among heritage professionals, collectors and artists.

To celebrate Vietnam Cultural Heritage Day, the Hue Monuments Conservation Centre will offer free admission for Vietnamese citizens on 23 November at all heritage sites under its management./.
