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.

According to the organizers, the competition not only provided a meaningful and engaging platform for students to enhance their knowledge and skills, but also helped foster love and awareness of heritage preservation among young people. “Through each question, students gain a deeper understanding of the value of Hue’s heritage and their responsibility in preserving and promoting it,” shared one of the judges.

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.
