Pride, happiness, and deep emotion are the feelings that arise in anyone who gazes upon Thai Hoa Palace on its return after tireless efforts by the relic management unit and talented artisans who have joined forces and hearts, with a shared passion for this masterpiece.

Along with the radiant and majestic images of Thai Hoa Palace as everything is ready for its return, Nguyen Phong, the photographer shared: “Before being dismantled for restoration, Thai Hoa Palace of 2021 was an incomplete version due to being patched up after the war. Now that it has returned, Thai Hoa Palace has been restored and meticulously returned to its original state as much as possible. I am truly moved and proud of my hometown Thua Thien Hue for this achievement”.

Thua Thien Hue Weekly respectfully introduces the images of Thai Hoa Palace to readers.
