The event brought together 50 outstanding students from five high schools: Hai Ba Trung, Nguyen Hue, Nguyen Truong To, Cao Thang, and Gia Hoi. Contestants competed in multiple rounds, from basic to advanced and the final round, answering questions related to the history, culture, and society of World Heritage cities around the globe, including those focusing on the heritage of Hue Ancient Capital.

The event was a meaningful activity in support of the OWHC-AP 2025 Conference, and also an opportunity for Hue’s young generation to demonstrate their pioneering role in the journey of preserving and promoting heritage - the pride of their homeland in the world.
