Quang Trung museum was built in his native village, Kien My, 40km west of Quy Nhon city. Inaugurated in 1978, it is one of the largest museums dedicated to famous Vietnamese personalities. It is also one of the busiest attracting researchers and tourists. In the museum, the Tay Son shrine, which worships the heroes of the Tay Son movement, was the first stop of visitors.

In the temple grounds, there is also an ancient tamarind tree, which is said to have been planted by the father of the three Tay Son brothers, Ho Phi Phuc, nearly 300 years ago. The tree is 24m high, with a trunk diameter of 1.2m, a root diameter of 3.9m and has been recognized as a heritage tree by the Vietnam Association for Nature and Environment Protection in 2011.

Visiting Quang Trung Museum, delegates also enjoyed performances of battle drums and Tay Son martial arts. Photo: Thu Ha
Martial arts and military drum playing performances are considered the two intangible heritages of Tay Son. Tay Son martial arts music consists of 12 drums, representing the 12 zodiac animals. The military drums is divided into three parts. The first indicates the departure of soldiers. At this time, the pace is rather moderate. The second part is entitled "besiege the citadel." The pace picks up. The last part is a triumphant song, expressing great joy.
Along with martial music, the VUFO delegates also enjoyed martial arts performances. Photo: Thu Ha

In 1789, under the leadership of Emperor Quang Trung, Tay Son troops defeated 290,000 Qing invaders, liberating the imperial city of Thang Long and regaining national independence and freedom.
Since then, the fifth day of the first lunar month has become the traditional day marking the historic victory. The Ngoc Hoi–Dong Da victory has also gone down in Vietnamese history as an immortal and epic struggle for national construction and defense.

The Party and State of Vietnam have been, are and will be determined to achieve the goal of ensuring and better protecting human rights on the basis of a rule-of-law state and socialist democracy under the leadership of the Communist Party of Vietnam, while contributing to the international community in resolving regional and global issues on human rights. Accordingly, it is necessary to well organize the implementation of the following basic contents and tasks.
General Secretary To Lam, in his recent articles and speeches, emphasized that Vietnam is at a pivotal moment, converging all advantages and strengths to usher the country into a new era of nation's rise. This new era follows the era of independence, freedom, building socialism, and innovation. The General Secretary has clearly outlined the foundations for setting goals and seizing historical opportunities to propel the country into this era of national growth.
Reflecting on the practical activities across historical periods helps evaluate the contributions and pivotal role of diplomacy in safeguarding the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, thereby drawing lessons and setting directions for the future.
Vietnam's foreign policy of independence, self-reliance, diversification, and multilateralization of international relations remains a consistent stance of the Party and State. Amid the current trend of opening up and international integration, the Party and State have cleverly led and managed foreign affairs activities with flexibility and promptness, aligning with both domestic and international contexts. Recent successful foreign affairs events have significantly consolidated and elevated Vietnam's position and prestige on the international political stage. However, hostile forces propagate false arguments to distort the Party and State's viewpoints on foreign affairs.
Vietnam's steadfast and flexible diplomatic efforts have contributed to controlling and preventing conflicts, maintaining a peaceful and stable environment for development.
The history of Vietnam’s diplomacy is inseparable from the significant milestones in the nation’s journey of building and defending its homeland. Over nearly five decades since liberation, Vietnam’s foreign affairs have consistently accompanied the country in overcoming immense challenges.
Vietnam consistently and transparently implements its national defense policy of peace and self-defense, always choosing and standing on the side of justice.
