Trang An Landscape Complex promoted on Google Arts & Culture
VOV.VN - Google Arts & Culture debuted an online exhibition on April 18 showcasing the Trang An Landscape Complex in Vietnam’s northern Ninh Binh province to mark its 10th anniversary of UNESCO recognition as a World Cultural and Natural Heritage Site.
The online platform offers visitors beautiful views of the Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex, one of the most attractive destinations in Vietnam.
Visitors will have the chance to contemplate the magnificent limestone mountains and the pristine caves which date back millions of years.
Located in Ninh Binh province near the Red River Delta, the Trang An Landscape Complex covers a total area of 6,226 hectares within the Trang An limestone massif and is surrounded by a 6,026-hectare buffer zone which is mostly made up of rural land with rice paddy fields, Google Arts & Culture introduced.
The landscape complex was recognised as a World Cultural and Natural Heritage Site in 2014. The site spans across 20 communes and wards in five districts and cities of Ninh Binh, comprising the Hoa Lu Ancient Capital, the Trang An-Tam Coc-Bich Dong Scenic Landscape, and the Hoa Lu Special-Use Forest.
The online exhibition is part of the Wonders of Vietnam project which was launched by Google Arts & Culture in 2021 with the aim of honouring the country’s natural landscapes, as well as the tangible and intangible heritages recognised by the UNESCO.
So far, the project features 35 exhibitions with 1,369 photos, panorama pictures, and videos in both Vietnamese and English in order to popularise the nation’s beauty to the world.
