Hue City People’s Committee is seeking public feedback on a draft resolution regulating the collection, management, and use of entrance fees for Hai Van Frontier Post, a national historical and architectural relic located atop the Hai Van Pass on the boundary between Hue and Danang.

That was the theme of the discussion held by Hue Architects Association in collaboration with other related agencies on the afternoon of December 16 at the Book Space and Reading Culture (No. 23 - 25 Le Loi Street, Thuan Hoa Ward).

Once being the Imperial Capital under the Nguyen Dynasty, Hue has undergone many historical phases, and today the city is regarded as one of Vietnam’s few cities where multiple architectural traditions coexist. It brings together folk, royal, colonial, and modern styles, developing in a way that balances the architecture, landscape, and culture, forming a distinctive urban identity.

Besides the ancient heritage architectural works with splendid beauty, future architects also depicted a truthful yet incredibly gentle portrayal when sketching modern constructions of Hue City on its development.

On the morning of September 27, as part of the 10th National Young Architects Festival - Hue 2025, a professional seminar titled “Green Creativity in Digital Era” took place. The event became a major highlight, attracting a great number of young architects, experts, and enthusiasts interested in the trend of sustainable architectures.

On the afternoon of September 20th, the University of Sciences (Hue University) held a ceremony to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the establishment of its Faculty of Architecture (1995 - 2025).

Organizing STEAM educational experiences for students; a warm art night dedicated to mothers; a journey carrying books to a remote village; and a discussion with young people about French architecture, etc., these activities gave August a warm start at Hue Book and Culture Space - a cultural meeting place that, despite being new, has become a cherished part of Hue.

Alongside preservation of palaces and temples, the heritage conservation efforts in the Ancient Capital also include the care, restoration, and propagation of trees, protecting ancient and precious species within relic sites, helping maintain the harmonious beauty of architecture and nature - a hallmark of Hue’s heritage space.

Hue culture with its typical characteristics of the land is portrayed through many unique cultural values such as cuisine, clothing, garden house architecture, education, music, theater, language, and poetry. These values have become great potential for Hue to become an important tourist center of Vietnam and Southeast Asia.

French architectural works in Hue in general, and those located along Le Loi St., in particular, have long been familiar. They are considered the bridges across time, serving as witnesses to the changing face of Hue’s urban landscape through many historical ups and downs.
