On the morning of February 17th, Mr. Nguyen Van Tuan, Principal of Phu Loc Town Secondary School (Phu Loc District), announced that the century-old tropical almond tree in the schoolyard has been recognized by the Vietnam Association for Conservation of Nature and Environment as a Vietnamese Heritage Tree.

Since the recognition of their existence, at specific intervals, the fate of the "earth dragon" species has been classified according to different conservation levels. Therefore, various authorities have employed diverse methods to search for and preserve this rare and precious dragon species.

This year's gallery introduced to the public 28 works by 8 artists and 7 children on the theme of the Dragon, using mainly acrylic on canvas and lacquer.

Under the ancient Nguyen Dynasty, the ceremony of lowering Neu tree was performed to mark the end of the Tet holiday and the normal life of work resumed.

With the initial numbers of 3 11-seat electric cars, 23 electric bicycles and 50 bicycles, visitors will have the opportunity to explore the heritage sites, enjoy fresh air, and admire the beautiful scenery of Gia Long Emperor’s mausoleum.

As the Tet holiday approaches, many Vietnamese people living far from their homeland still feel the eager atmosphere. Some feel excited when returning to their homeland, while many families enjoy celebrating Vietnamese Tet in foreign lands.

Lunar New Year 2024 is the opening of the Year of the Dragon. Wishes for the new year are often referred to as a dream. If there is a dream for Hue in the year of the Dragon, it can be called “Hue’s Dragon Dream"!

It had been a long time since Hue had a “reunion” of works by famous artists that attracted a large number of viewers. That exhibition is the result of an arduous 5-year collecting process since the establishment of Hue Museum of Fine Arts at the end of 2018.

The Department of Tourism has reported that during the Giap Thin Lunar New Year (Year of the Dragon), the number of tourists visiting Hue for sightseeing and experiences has significantly increased compared to that of the same period in 2023, with many accommodation facilities fully booked during the festive days.

The painting "Long van khe hoi" (Nine dragons in the clouds) is a masterpiece on the ceiling of the old main hall of Dieu De Pagoda, which has been moved around 20 meters backward, and is currently being well preserved to the surprise of many. The painting used to be a topic of heated debate for many years regarding whether to keep in the old main hall or to dismantle it. Dismantling it also meant erasing this masterpiece.
