In 2024, Ninh Binh will organize various activities and events to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Trang An Landscape Complex being recognized by UNESCO as a World Cultural and Natural Heritage.
The Trang An Landscape Complex, located in Ninh Binh province, is the only “dual” World Heritage Site in Southeast Asia, as recognized by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in June 2014.
On January 24, the People’s Committee of Ninh Binh province held a press conference to provide information about the activities planned to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Trang An Landscape Complex being recognized as a World Cultural and Natural Heritage by UNESCO.
Mr. Tran Song Tung, Vice Chairman of the People’s Committee of Ninh Binh province, emphasized, “Not only renowned for the majestic and magnificent natural landscapes, along with the preservation and transmission of traditional cultural identity over thousands of years, Trang An is also a repository of intact information about the human settlement tradition, the historical use of land and sea by prehistoric people with a continuous and enduring cultural history of over 30,000 years. We deeply understand that Trang An Heritage is not only a treasure bestowed by nature, preserved and handed down by the generations of Ninh Binh people to this day, but also a convergence and crystallization of the historical-cultural values and beautiful traditions of the nation.”
