Hue Museum of Royal Antiquities

A place filled with traces of a golden dynasty

Built in 1923, the Hue Museum of Royal Antiquities is the first museum to appear in the ancient capital. From the outside, the Nguyen Dynasty's architecture, dating back to 1845, creates a sense of ancient and majestic beauty. The museum displays many high-value collections, reflecting the material life, political rituals, and ideology of the aristocracy and kings of the Nguyen Dynasty.

This place attracts visitors with over 500 antiques made of gold, crockery, porcelain, Hue glaze, royal medicine, royal clothes, etc. displayed to recreate royal life. Therefore, the museum is always an ideal destination for those who are interested and want to understand more about the history of Vietnam.

Fossil Exhibition

Journey to discover the origin of life on Earth

For the first time in Vietnam, Lyte fossils appeared with the largest size in the stone chrysanthemum group, creating a sense of curiosity and surprise for visitors. This fossil, called Lytoceras Chrysanthemum, existed in the Jurassic 174-164 million years ago and was found in Antananarivo, Madagascar. Not only creating the shape of a flattened, tightly coiled shape, an eye-catching round or nearly square cross-section, but nature also created beautiful patterns on the shell.

This summer, Hanoi Fossil Museum will bring 2000 fossil samples, ancient rocks quarried from Lytoceras fossils to Hue, and displayed at the exhibition "Fossils - Journey to discover the origin of life on the earth". The exhibition is organized in collaboration with Hue Monuments Conservation Center and within the framework of Hue Festival 2022.

All five senses of visitors who enter the exhibition will be satisfied and they will get to hear stories from billions and hundreds of millions of years ago recreated in the form of shells, fossils and rocks.
