The exhibition, co-organised by the Quang Ninh provincial Museum and Tuan Chau Group, is to mark the 65th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day (September 2) and in celebration of Hanoi’s millennial birthday.
The month-long exhibition showcases nearly 300 precious photos and objects found in Tuan Chau, Quang Ninh province, including pottery, Dai La bricks and a clay tower dating back to the 7th -10th century period.
Over the past 1,000 years, the influence of Hanoi on Ha Long city to the northeast, and the influence of Ha Long on the nation’s capital, Thang Long/Hanoi, has created a rich and unique culture for both.
Numerous objects under the Dinh, early-Le, Ly and Tran dynasties have been discovered in Tuan Chau city, Quang Ninh province while the Ly dynasty from the Thang Long capital set up Van Don trading port in Quang Ninh, which opened the way for economic and cultural exchanges.
