Thanh Chuong Viet Palace

About

The Thanh Chuong Viet Palace was built in 2001 by artist Thanh Chuong. Desiring to preserve Vietnam’s history and culture, the artist erected 30 examples of historic Vietnamese architecture, filled them with traditional folk art and historic artefacts. Nearly all of Vietnam’s 54 ethnic groups are represented here, from the stilt houses of the Muong, to a 300-year-old Hue imperial house. Between the buildings are lush gardens, themselves filled with local culture - be it a 500-year old bridge, or the delicate pink lotus - the national flower. Within the buildings, historic ceramics, paintings, sculptures, and Thanh Chuong’s own artwork give a more detailed look at the country’s culture. The experience is completed with by enjoying a cup of tea at a delicate wooden table while admiring the palace’s tranquility, or tucking in to a traditional meal at the on-site restaurant.
