The exhibition attracts many academics and antiquity researchers. Most of these antiques will be permanently displayed at Ngu Phung Pavilion.

He is considered a dynamic and assertive king, introducing a series of reforms from politics to diplomacy, including the prevention of Western influence on Vietnam./. VNA/VNP
