via Vietnam Net, 14 March 2022: Preservation of historic wooden houses in Hue.
To preserve the cultural values of the houses, the central province of Thua Thien-Hue is aiming to build a brand associated with the city’s unique tourism, preserving their heritage and making them a symbol of the ancient royal capital, according to a Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism report.
Rường houses are Hue’s traditional wooden houses and have a unique structure with beams and pillars enforced by timber and bamboo connectors, without the use of any iron nails.
