President Truong Tan Sang was informed about the latest efforts to preserve and restore Hoa Lu ancient capital, a historical and cultural site of great value in the northern province of Ninh Binh, during a working session with local authorities on January 14th.

Sitting on a site of 339ha, Hoa Lu ancient capital gained its status as a special national relic site in 2012. Later in June 2014, the UNESCO listed Trang An scenic landscape complex as a world cultural and natural heritage, with Hoa Lu as part of the zone under special protection.

Since 2002, Ninh Binh has undertaken 6 projects worth over VND3.4 trillion (USD161 million) to give Hoa Lu a new lease of life. However, the province is facing difficulties in raising the necessary funding.
