Entitled “Vietnam’s archaeological treasures”, the exhibition will run through February 26 next year and move to other locations throughout Germany, including Sachsen and Baden-Wurttemberg.

The exhibits will include a boat, an 8m-tall temple, bronze drums, grave goods, gem spears, arrows, and more. A bucket used by late Vietnamese President Ho Chi Minh will be among the featured items.

Installation works and documentaries will also be showcased at the event, offering spectators a deeper look into Vietnamese culture and history.

Focusing on archaeological findings from the past 60 years, the organizers hope to bring spectators from the North Rhine-Westphalia state on a trip back in time to a tropical country not well known in Germany.
