As many cultural heritages in Viet Nam face the risk of deterioration due to the effects of nature, time, and human negligence, heritage preservation has become an urgent task. Relying solely on domestic resources makes it difficult to achieve effective conservation.

Viet Nam’s northern mountainous province of Dien Bien and Russia’s Saint Petersburg city are exploring deeper cooperation, particularly in cultural heritage preservation, environmental and information technology, and the exchange of experts and engineers.

With thousands of large and small islands amidst emerald green waters and a rich, mysterious cave system, Ha Long Bay resembles a vast, vivid, and majestic ink wash painting crafted and arranged by nature over many centuries.

Artistic creativity, performance arts, and especially the field of cultural heritage preservation in Viet Nam are facing numerous challenges in terms of resources.
