The Hue ancient capital preservation centre is currently carrying out a research to restore the Can Chanh Palace as part of a cooperative project with the Japanese Waseda University.
The US $5 million project to research, train and preserve the Hue ancient capital historical site, which started in 2003, should be completed in five years.
Previously, the centre conducted research on the Heritage House and restored the Long An Palace as part of the project.
A research and training project on Hue royal music is currently underway by the centre with aid, valued at US $154,000, granted by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO). (VNA)
