Exhibition "Hoang Sa, Truong Sa - The Land at the Forefront of the Waves"

The exhibition is one of the practical actions demonstrating the responsibility and affection of the coordinating units in contributing their intellect and efforts to safeguarding maritime sovereignty. At the same time, it is also a tribute to the generations of ancestors who, undeterred by hardship, tirelessly guarded the seas and islands day and night, protecting peace in the face of adversity, many of whom bravely sacrificed their lives for the sacred sovereignty of the Fatherland.

The exhibition showcases approximately 300 representative documents and artifacts, including maps, official records, photographs, books, and documentary films, aiming to truthfully and objectively reflect the history of Vietnam's exercise of sovereignty and sovereign rights and jurisdiction over the Hoang Sa and Truong Sa archipelagos, as well as the close and heartfelt bond between the mainland and the islands through field visits, youth journeys for the homeland's islands, and student trips to the islands of the Fatherland...

The exhibition consists of three main parts:

Part 1: The Spratly and Paracel Islands viewed from historical documents (Produced by the Museum of Anthropology)

Part 2: Emotions about Truong Sa through visits (Produced by the Museum of Anthropology)

Part 3: Youth and the Homeland's Seas and Islands (Produced by the Youth Museum)
