Hanoi spares no expense to preserve cultural heritage sites

via Vietnam Plus, 19 April 2023: Hanoi is investing heavily on the preservation of both its tangible and intangible assets.

The capital city of Hanoi has spared no expense in renovating and promoting its heritage sites while seeking new ways for sustainable preservation.

Hanoi is home to more than 1,200 recognised relic sites, accounting for one-third of this type of valuable site nationally.

It can be said that Hanoi preserves a huge amount of cultural heritage for the country, Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Hoang Dao Cuong said at a meeting held on April 18, aiming to review the implementation of a project on the preservation of Thang Long Imperial Citadel and the Co Loa relic site, and setting key tasks for 2023.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism (MoCST) recognised Hanoi’s investment in the restoration of relics, especially according to a resolution of the city’s Party Committee on spending more than 4 trillion VND (170 million USD) on 500 sites, he said, noting that it will contribute to preserving cultural heritages of the nation.
