Hue is gradually undertaking the inventory, research and development of a database of its Buddhist woodblocks, with the aim of completing a nomination dossier for UNESCO recognition of Hue Buddhist woodblocks as documentary heritage. This process must go hand in hand with practical conservation measures to safeguard these valuable historical sources for generations to come and promote the cultural and historical values preserved in each carved block.

Drawing on the woodblock prints of traditional Vietnamese folk painting genres such as Dong Ho, Hang Trong, Kim Hoang, and Lang Sinh, the Woodblock Art Experience Space at 23-25 Le Loi Street brings visitors closer to traditional art. Beyond contemplating the artworks, visitors can try printing and coloring the woodblocks while discovering the stories and cultural values behind each piece.

Artisans from Thanh Lieu craft village (Hai Duong) have recently given a performance and recounted the journey of reviving and preserving the traditional art of woodblock printing passed down by their ancestors.
