via Vietnam Plus, 06 Febuary 2022: Vietnam seeks to register these dynastic urns as part of the Unesco Memory of the World list.
The Nine Dynastic Urns, built in late 1835 and completed in early 1837, was recognised as a national treasure in 2012, and considered the most valuable bronze works in Vietnam.
The Hue Monuments Conservation Centre has completed the compilation of a dossier for the national treasure of “Cuu dinh” (Nine Dynastic Urns) to seek UNESCO recognition as a world documentary heritage.
The dossiers will be submitted to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism for consideration and recommendations before seeking UNESCO’s recognition, said Dr Le Thi An Hoa from the centre.
