via Saigon Giai Phong, 26 June 2021: Excavations at the palace site were recently completed, and now restoration work to the aging structure will begin.
Thai Hoa Palace in Vietnam’s Hue Imperial Citadel has seen approvals for restoration works as the building is falling apart with time and severe weather. Archaeologists had worked non-stop while experts discuss the complications in preserving this ancient architectural complex.
The Hue Monuments Conservation Center (HMCC) in the past few weeks had been collecting artefacts around the place ground for safe-keeping, said its Director.
“Our team managed to unearth parts of the foundation to determine its infrastructure, materials, and how to best restore and preserve the stone steps, foundation as well as the whole Thai Hoa Palace complex”, he stated.
