The Nine Dynastic Urns, housed in the Hue Imperial Citadel in the central province of Thua Thien-Hue, have been inscribed in the Memory of the World Register. This prestigious recognition was awarded unanimously by all 23 participating countries during the 10th plenary meeting of the Memory of the World Committee for Asia and the Pacific, held in both online and in-person format in Mongolia on May 8. These bronze urns, all meticulously crafted, stand horizontally within The To Mieu (To Mieu Temple) courtyard in the Hue Imperial Citadel, a place to worship the kings of the Nguyen Dynasty – the last feudal regime which ruled Vietnam from 1802 to 1945.
