Documents, artifacts from Vietnam’s first university on display

via Vietnam Plus, 26 December 2022: Exhibition of education in Vietnam at the Temple of Literature.

Precious documents and artifacts from Quoc Tu Giam – Vietnam’s first university – are on display at Hanoi’s Temple of Literature.

The month-long exhibition showcases more than 200 valuable documents and artifacts from Vietnam’s first university, to give visitors an insight into the country’s education system, in which two different education systems coexisted: Confucianism and Western education under French rule.

The exhibition is divided into two spaces: static and dynamic, and indoor and outdoor. The indoor exhibition takes visitors back in time, when Quoc Tu Giam passed through each historical milestone, with the beginning of the Ly Dynasty, development under the Tran – Ho Dynasties, culminating in the Le – Mac – Le Trung Hung Dynasties, changes under the Nguyen Dynasty, and the revival of contemporary relics.
