That information was presented at the review conference of the project “Promoting the Value of Ho Chi Minh Relics in Hue City to Serve Tourism Development” for the 2021-2025 period, which was recently organized by the Department of Culture and Sports of Hue City.

This project was approved by the Provincial People’s Committee (now Hue City). Its overall objective is to guide the development of museum tourism and the system of Ho Chi Minh memorial sites, based on leveraging and promoting existing potentials and advantages, meeting the needs of visitors and tourists, and aligning with Hue’s key tourism and service development plans and programs.

Furthermore, the project also aims to attract much more investment capital for the restoration and renovation of Ho Chi Minh memorial sites; innovate the exhibition at Ho Chi Minh Museum, create a “red address” for educating patriotic traditions and turn this into an attractive destination for cultural and historical tourism that draws the attention of visitors.

Accordingly, the work of implementing the project, along with the restoration and preservation of the system of Ho Chi Minh memorial sites, must be associated with tourism development. The renovation of museum exhibition systems has to be carried out decisively, with investment to expand some certain heritage sites; and create cultural spaces appropriate to the sites. Annually, 5-6 specialized exhibitions are held at the museum, including in-depth thematic exhibitions that fully apply innovative display solutions in diverse and attractive formats, drawing large numbers of visitors, students, and residents of Hue City.

Moreover, the collection of documents and artifacts for exhibitions at the museum and Ho Chi Minh memorial sites in Hue has been a key focus and regularly carried out. During the 2021-2025 period, the collection efforts bring nearly 300 artifacts related to President Ho Chi Minh and revolutionary war themes into the repository to serve exhibition purposes.

It's known that the project has also upgraded the comprehensive electronic information portal of the Ho Chi Minh Museum, promptly updating news about the museum’s activities, documentary information on President Ho Chi Minh, and promoting the museum and Ho Chi Minh memorial sites in Hue City. Promotion channels for the Ho Chi Minh Museum and the memorial sites have been developed, including the creation of Facebook and YouTube pages to provide activity updates. The project has also established thematic exhibitions about President Ho Chi Minh using 3D technology for online popularization.

On this occasion, many organizations and individuals received Certificates of Merit and Commendation from the Chairman of Hue City People’s Committee and the Department of Culture and Sports of Hue City for their outstanding achievements during the implementation of the project.

So that heritage is more than just a memory

Hue is a heritage city, but Hue’s cultural strength does not lie solely in its citadel, palaces, royal tombs, or historic architecture. Behind these tangible forms of heritage lies a vibrant world of music, festivals, beliefs, traditional crafts, cuisine, clothing, and folk knowledge. This is the ‘soul’ that gives Hue its distinctive identity.
