Hanoi (VNS/VNA) - The People’s Committee of Hanoi is accelerating theunification of the management of Thang Long Imperial Citadel, one of Vietnam’s eightcommitments to UNESCO.

Though Thang Long Imperial Citadel was recognised as a UNESCO World HeritageSite in 2010, the city has yet to fulfil the commitment to unify the managementof the site.

Both management organisations and scientists have expressed theirhopes to unify the management of the site to better preserve it.

Thang Long Imperial Citadel covers a total area of 18,353ha and the siteis under the ownership of the city of Hanoi, the Ministry of National Defenceand two families who made significant contributions to the national revolutions.

According to the Thang Long-Hanoi Heritage Conservation Centre, the citymanages 16,654ha now, 91 per cent of the total heritage area.

The remaining area, possessed by sub-units of the Ministry of National Defence,including the Vietnam Military History Museum and a petrol station on nearbyNguyen Tri Phuong street, and two families who made significantcontributions to the national revolutions.

According to an agreement between the Party Committee of Hanoi and the CentralMilitary Commission, the Vietnam Military History Museum will be relocated andthe site will be handed over to the city in 2022.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc did not agree with the proposal ofretaining the petrol station on Nguyen Tri Phuong street of the defenceministry.

At the same time, the People's Committee of Ba Dinh district and the Departmentof Construction of Hanoi are implementing a plan to relocate andcompensate two families who manage 0.15ha of the heritage site. Theyhave committed to handing over the land in the next quarter two of this year.

Associate Professor, Dr Tong Trung Tin, Chairman of the Vietnam ArcheologyAssociation, said the top concern of UNESCO, authorities and scientists aboutThang Long Imperial Citadel is its unified management.

According to him, Hanoi has made great efforts in implementing the commitmentto UNESCO and has acquired most of the area of the heritage site over the years.

Tin suggested the city work to speed up the unified management on the rest ofthe area that has not yet been acquired.

Hanoi leaders have pledged that the city will seriously implement theGovernment's commitment to UNESCO on the unification of the Thang Long ImperialCitadel.

The city will work with the Ministry of National Defence to accelerate theconstruction of a new Vietnam Military History Museum in Nam Tu Liem districtto take over its former location for the heritage site.

The archaeological excavations of Thang Long Imperial Citadel since 2002 haveunearthed millions of relics of various types from ceramics, chinaware, tometal objects.

On December 4 last year, the People's Committee of Hanoi and the VietnamAcademy of Social Sciences signed a memorandum of understanding to implementthe plan for the handover of all the remaining relics from 2020 to 2025.

Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Hoang Dao Cuong suggested theitems should be handed over as soon as possible.

According to him, although this process has been done for a long time, it isimpossible to preserve and display the relics as long as they have not been fullyhanded over.

The relics are classified into many types, so the receiving and managing unitmust evaluate and classify them before building the project for theirarchaeological display.

Professor, Ph.D Nguyen Quang Ngoc, Director of Centre for Hanoi Studies andCapital Development said the unified management of Thang Long Citadel heritagehas taken too long and related agencies need to speed up the progress.

He also said that the handover and reception of relics must comply with the Lawon Cultural Heritage./.

Standing on the historic land of Quang Tri, alongside the Ben Hai River, the Quang Tri Ancient Citadel and the national martyrs’ cemeteries, people are reminded of the true value of peace and the sacrifices made for national independence, freedom and reunification.

One of the exhibition's highlights is the "Our Sound" installation, where visitors become part of the artwork itself. As multiple participants interact simultaneously, sound and light merge into a shared composition, conveying messages of connection, sharing and collective responsibility for building sustainable communities in harmony with nature.

The programme retraced the city's half-century journey of construction and development while conveying the affection and pride of people across the country for Vietnam's economic powerhouse.

Unlike conventional fireworks that are launched directly into the sky, water fireworks are fired into the water first. After absorbing water, they burst upward from the surface, creating striking light effects against the backdrop of the Saigon River.

Chinese entertainment stars are increasingly choosing outfits by Vietnamese designers for red carpet events, concerts, magazine shoots and international appearances, propelling Vietnamese fashion into the spotlight across Chinese social media and strengthening its presence in one of Asia's largest fashion markets.

The “Vietnam Day in Skopje 2026” event has been held in the heart of Skopje, bringing Vietnam’s cultural heritage and contemporary image closer to the people of North Macedonia and international visitors.

The event opened a series of commemorative activities marking 50 years since Saigon – Gia Dinh was officially named after President Ho Chi Minh (July 2, 1976–2026).

Dr. Ngo Phuong Lan, Chairwoman of the Vietnam Cinema Promotion and Development Association and Director of DANAFF IV, said the Politburo's Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW on breakthroughs in science, technology, innovation, and national digital transformation, and Resolution No. 80-NQ/TW on the development of Vietnamese culture have created a solid foundation for advancing cultural industries and a creative economic sector, and strengthening IP protection, opening up new opportunities for Vietnam's film sector.

Titled "The Last Bullet," the film follows the remarkable journey of the Olympic shooting champion, highlighting the perseverance, discipline, coach-athlete bond and personal sacrifices behind his historic achievement.

The photo exhibition featured vivid images of Vietnam's majestic natural scenery, rich cultural heritage, distinctive customs and centuries-old traditional craft villages.

The festival conveyed a meaningful message on safeguarding and promoting ethnic cultural identities to both domestic and international audiences. It helped raise public awareness and community responsibility while creating new momentum for tourism development, cultural industries and traditional crafts closely associated with the lives of Cham people in the new era.

Jointly organised by the Vietnam Fine Arts Association, the Guangxi Arts University of China and the Lijiang School of Painting of Guangxi, the exhibition features more than 90 selected paintings which cover a wide range of subjects, including landscapes, flowers, birds and portraits.

After three editions under the theme "Bridging Asia", DANAFF IV has adopted the new theme "Bridging Asia to the World", reflecting its ambition to connect Vietnamese cinema more closely with regional and global film industries.

Xam singing, a folk art form with a history of more than 700 years, is not only a distinctive form of performance but also a living archive of Vietnamese cultural memory, reflecting everyday life, emotions, and aspirations across generations.
