Hue ceremony to honour UNESCO-recognised World Heritage Site

VOV.VN - Thua Thien-Hue province in central Vietnam will hold a ceremony in June to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Hue Monuments complex and the 20th anniversary of Nha Nhac (Hue royal court music) winning world cultural heritage titles from UNESCO.

The ceremony is to evaluate the efforts Vietnam has made in preserving and promoting the value of world cultural heritages in Thua Thien-Hue over recent decades.

It will also provide a forum for policymakers and experts to exchange views on how to promote world cultural heritage values in Vietnam and other countries around the globe.  

Simultaneously, the event will contribute to ensuring the strict implementation of UNESCO commitments in the management, protection, and promotion of cultural heritage values, as well as enhancing ties between Vietnam and UNESCO towards meeting the goal of preserving heritage sites for future generations.

A wide range of activities will take place from June 16 to 18 to mark the special occasion, while a ceremony and an art programme honouring these heritages will be held at 8 p.m. on June 17 at Ngo Mon (Noon Gate) Square.

There will be a number of exhibitions to get underway which feature royal antiquities, paintings, and poetry of King Thieu Tri through traditional Taiwanese calligraphy.
