The State-funded components target preserving and restoring relic sites in the ancient Hue imperial citadel, including Dien Kien Trung temple, Ngo Mon square, Trieu Mieu temple and Dong Khanh tomb.

The latters are those to preserve and repair the forbidden areas of the citadel, Dien Tho Ninh (phase 2), the Xa Tac relic site, the Kham Thien Giam relic site and the Nghinh Luong Dinh relic site.

The PM assigns the province to be in charge and work with relevant ministries and agencies to carry out the project effectively in line with the law.

The locality is responsible for appraising and approving the component projects as well as supervising the implementation.

The ancient Hue imperial relic site was recognised by the UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage in 1993, and the Hue Royal Court Music gained the status of an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2003.-VNA
