More than 100 antiques belonging to the Dong Son culture, which have been discovered since 2004, are now on display at the Vietnam History Museum, to celebrate the 85th year of the Dong Son culture being discovered.
Most of the antiques are bronze and pottery objects which feature classic Dong Son style. Many of the exhibits are being displayed for the first time, which previous collections of Dong Son antiques in Vietnam and the world don’t have.
