The Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism has added 17 more heritages to the list of national intangible cultural heritages, including Hanoi Pho, Nam Dinh Pho, the Quang An lotus tea preservation craft, Sa Huynh pottery making craft, and more.

Inside the Forbidden City, Thai Binh Pavilion was once used by the king for reading books and reciting poems above the quiet surface of Ngoc Dich Lake. Visitors can leisurely sit on a boat gently surfing on the lake and enjoy the pure taste of lotus tea while admiring the palaces, fortresses, and the beauty of the royal Parasol flowers.
