Welcome to culture scene on Vietnam today and you are watching with me, Vu Wang so.

Once a bustling international trading port in the 1670s, Fo Hin connected Vietnam with many countries around the world.

Recognized as a special national heritage site more than a decade ago, its development potential remains significant.

This morning, a major scientific workshop was held to explore new approaches to unlocking Fu Hin's heritage value in the context of today's development.

The workshop attracted the participation of many scientists, experts and cultural managers from both central and local levels.

Participants agreed that Fohien should be reawakened as a development resource rather than viewed solely as a historical memory.

Before the provincial mergence, development conditions in Hunghyun were limited.

Now the province is ready to revive Fo Hin Fohien will be gradually revived as a living heritage space, promoting historical, cultural, creative and community values.

Heung Yin aims to leverage this foundation to develop tourism services and creative industries, generating new growth drivers and improving local livelihoods.

Link in Fuhen's historical and cultural values with creative industries and tourism is an urgent and appropriate approach, turning the site into creative, cultural and experiential tours for heritage dating back hundreds of years.

Restoration cannot rely solely on remaining artifacts, but requires digital technology for accurate and visual reconstruction.

Before the provincial mergence, development conditions in Heungian were limited.

Now the province is ready to revive Fo Hien.

The workshop results will serve as a key scientific basis to develop concrete plans and restore Fo Hin's living heritage.

Lacquer painting is one of Vietnam's most distinctive art forms.

Traditionally in spirit, yet open to contemporary creativity, the Golden Note invites the public to step into that process to appreciate the lasting beauty of lacquer and to honor a material often seen as the soul of Vietnamese fine art.

At the exhibition, audiences are not only presented with refined lacquer artworks, but

also witness a story of connection, one that preserves, continues, and

spreads artistic heritage across generations.

The idea organizing a series of events has been part of 84 space visions.

Since the very beginning, we have always sought out folk and traditional art forms that reflect Vietnamese identity, and

we hope to bring these art forms closer to the general public.

For Nguyen Thi Dien, lacquer is not only a medium, but

also a quiet philosophy, one that values restraint, depth and clarity.

When society becomes saturated with material abundance, it naturally calls for simplicity.

When I paint, I find great joy in conveying many intentions through a single simple idea.

The exhibition also reveals a story of inheritance.

Growing up surrounded by art, Nguyen Ding Van inherited not only skills but also a sense of responsibility toward traditional culture.

As a young artist, I believe that understanding traditional culture is essential.

Only when young people truly understand their heritage can they continue and share it with the world.

The exhibition also highlights contemporary voices, those who approach lacquer through personal experiences and new perspectives.

My hearing impairment is not a major obstacle, but

I have strong support from dedicated teachers and I work independently with complete focus from start to finish.

Bringing together Vietnamese lacquer artists from across generations.

The Golden Nuance exhibition shows us exactly how traditions endure, how it finds its place even amidst the bustling rhythm of contemporary urban life.

In Naklak, remote villages where the Ede live in traditional longhouses, the magic archo system remains deeply respected.

At the centre of each home is the hearth, regarded as the soul of the longhouse, symbolizing daily life and the spiritual beliefs of the Central Highlands.

In the more than 35 year old Longhouse of he Loy Bunza family, this hearth has nurtured generations.

Edae hearts are typically square or rectangular, built with a thick layer of packed earth to insulate heat from the floor, then fitted with simple supports for cooking.

The fire also helps the house last longer by preventing termites.
