This is an educational initiative aimed at raising awareness of Hue’s cultural heritage among children in the city.
The program is organized by the Hue Monuments Conservation Center in collaboration with the German Cultural Heritage Protection Association (GEKE).
Participants will learn about traditional decorative patterns in the imperial citadel and practice coloring using watercolor painting techniques. Experts will explain traditional painting techniques and introduce the use of colors and coloring methods. The children will explore and discover traditional patterns found on the screen walls and main gates of the palace.

As part of the heritage education journey, children will choose printed A3 pattern drawings and experience coloring with professional watercolors and brushes at the project office located in the Phung Tien Palace area.
Additionally, the program includes a memory game called “Hue: The Memory Game,” designed to teach children about the meanings of the patterns in an engaging way. The children will also work together to research and search for patterns used in the Phung Tien Palace.
Children enthusiastically participate in the memory training game.
Along with raising awareness of Hue’s cultural heritage, the program helps children develop focus, artistic inspiration, and creativity while encouraging them to stay away from electronic devices.
According to the Hue Monuments Conservation Center, in 2023 alone, the center successfully collaborated with Hue City’s Department of Education and Training to implement the school heritage education program in 85 schools, involving over 25,000 students.

In the near future, the center plans to collaborate with partners, heritage sites, and schools to develop additional Hue heritage education programs targeted at young people, students, and international and out-of-province students.
