Andrea Teufel, a German conservator-restorer, has dedicated almost 20 years of her life to restoring the heritage buildings of Hue. Among the many relics she has worked on, Phung Tien Temple is the one that she researched extensively and worked hard to restore its architectural beauty.

Not only serving the transportation industry, Hue Railway Station - a work built during the French period - is considered one of the iconic architectural heritage in the heart of Hue urban area. Having gone through many ups and downs, this station now still continues to witness the development of the land.

After having gone through 13 king reigns, the Nguyen Dynasty left to Hue heritage a huge volume of mausoleums and royal tombs, many of which bring unique historical, architectural, and cultural values such as Gia Long, Minh Mang, Tu Duc, and Khai Dinh royal tombs, etc. This is one of the factors helping Hue to be always attractive to tourists.

"Hue Architectural Heritage through Drawings - Document of the Institute of Monument Conservation” is a publication recently published by the Institute of Monument Conservation belonging to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, (formerly the Central Workshop of Monument Preservation and Repair, Monument Design and Repair Center.)

On the afternoon of March 21, the Institute of Conservation of Monuments introduced the publication “Hue architectural heritage through drawings - Materials of the Institute of Conservation of Monuments” to managers and researchers in Hue. Mr. Phan Ngoc Tho, Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee attended the event.

Thanks to the 3D-scanning application, data of the status quo of architectural works in Hue heritage complex were obtained and stored. These data are used for conservation as well as for virtual reality (VR) tours.
