Since the start of 2016, the Hue Monuments Conservation Centre welcomed almost two million visitors, including 1.43 million foreigners, an increase of 36.5% year-on-year.
Along with organising some exhibitions on the relics, the Hue Monuments Conservation Centre is implementing the “Promoting services for tourism” plan, using community and businesses resources to promote the relics’ values.
The revenue earned by the plan since the start of the year reached 11 billion VND (US$493,130).
The third phase of Gold Tourism Week at Hue heritage sites will be organised from December 24 to 30. During the period, tourists to Hue monuments will be offered discounts on tickets to cultural destinations.
The centre has invested nearly 5 billion VND (US$224,100) in small restoration works at relics and infrastructure to serve visitors.
The centre has also preserved intangible heritage. The Hue Royal Traditional Theatre has more than 100 trained and experienced performers, experts and artists, with dozens of traditional ritual songs and royal dances to be delivered to visitors.
Besides, the centre is expected to open the Imperial Citadel at night from next summer, completing the brochure of An Dinh Palace and designing souvenirs to promote royal antiquities.
The places include Ngo Mon Gate (Noon Gate), Thai Hoa Palace (Supreme Harmony Palace), The Mieu (Ancestral Temple), Dien Tho Palace, Truong Sanh Palace, Tu Phuong Vo Su Pavilion and Hoa Binh Gate (Peace Gate).
The move aims to offer tourists more time to cover interesting places in the Citadel due to their feedback on hot weather in summer.
The 520ha Hue Imperial Citadel, a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage, is situated along the Huong (Perfume) River. Hue was the capital of Vietnam under the Nguyen Dynasty – the country’s last feudal dynasty (1802-1945).
Since 1994, the Complex of Hue Monuments has received 33 million visitors, including 12 million foreigners.
In 2015, the complex welcomed over 2.3 million visitors.
