Situated in central Hanoi, the venue is poised to become a culturally profound destination, offering a comprehensive, authentic window into Vietnam's layered history, heritage, and governance traditions, all revealed through the presence of original documents themselves.
Beyond heritage and culture, Vietnam has increasingly demonstrated its role as an active, responsible and proactive member contributing to UNESCO’s policy-shaping processes, thereby enhancing national prestige and promoting humanistic and peace-loving values on the global stage, Ambassador Nguyen Thi Van Anh, Permanent Representative of Vietnam to UNESCO, told Vietnam News Agency correspondents in Paris.
Vietnam has once again been honoured as the World’s Leading Heritage Destination in 2025 by the World Travel Awards (WTA), marking its sixth recognition after the wins in 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023, and 2024 and reaffirming its foothold in the global tourism industry.
At the venue, visitors are treated to immersive visual effects created by spatial computing, a digital exhibition area using Apple Vision Pro, and 3D hologram projection solutions.
The repeated recognition over the years affirms the lasting, timeless allure of Vietnam’s renowned destinations. It also reflects the continuous efforts of localities to preserve resources, diversify tourism products and improve service quality. The growing global acclaim contributes to shaping a diverse, distinctive and highly competitive network of destinations, helping Vietnam continue to shine at prestigious international tourism awards.
Over 4,000 years of history have left the Vietnamese people with a rich and diverse cultural heritage. This heritage is not only an invaluable asset for the nation but also an important resource for sustainable development.
