The experience space is located within the Royal Treasury Palace complex. Here, visitors can experience a digital heritage space featuring vivid visual effects powered by spatial computing technology. A highlight is the digital exhibition area utilizing Apple Vision Pro, which offers a truly immersive experience, recreating history right before the visitors' eyes. Additionally, 3D Hologram projection technology allows the public to admire National Treasures up close without any physical impact on the original artifacts.

Visitors can also experience the “De Do Khao Co Ky” (“Imperial Capital City Archaeology Chronicles”) collectible toy model. After a year-long pilot phase, the “De Do Khao Co Ky”  project has helped expand public outreach, and opened new pathways for heritage tourism and museum digitization, aiming to build a cultural industry in Hue.

Mr. Hoang Viet Trung, Director of Hue Monuments Conservation Center, stated that in the coming time, the space will continue to introduce new experiences such as Virtual Try-on for historical costumes combined with vivid cinematic historical spaces, promising to offer unique cultural touchpoints, helping visitors gain a deeper understanding of the history, rituals, and cultural values of Hue Ancient Capital.

On this occasion, Hue Monuments Conservation Center and Phygital Labs signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to establish a comprehensive partnership in the digitization and commercialization of cultural products. The signing aims to standardize data and protect copyrights, as well as developing transparent and sustainable cultural products and services - prerequisites for turning heritage into a driving force for the cultural industry and the creative economy.
