A successful logo is not only an attractive design but also the most concise visual language for telling Việt Nam's story to the Asia-Pacific region and the wider international community.

Created by students at FPT University, the Dáng Hình Di Sản (Shapes of Heritage) project uses 3D models, AI-generated performances and digital storytelling to transform traditional heritage into an immersive experience, inviting users to see, hear, touch and connect with the country's cultural treasures.

The commemoration is a major event of special significance, honouring the life, career and outstanding contributions of the luminary to the nation's culture, science and education.

HCM City is hosting an exhibition of commendation records and valuable historical documents of war veterans to express deep gratitude to the generations who sacrificed for national independence.

Digitising Việt Nam's folk culture, including oral literature, beliefs, customs, festivals and art passed down through generations, has become an urgent lever for national cultural development in the new era.

Held in HCM City from July 28 to 30, the eighth Việt Nam-Laos-Cambodia Children's Festival brought together 120 child delegates from Việt Nam, Laos and Cambodia, along with 100 children from the southern hub.

Audience members receive horns, paper hand fans and clappers and are invited to participate in the performance.

Currently, cultural industries contribute around 4 per cent of Việt Nam’s GDP. Under Resolution 80, the sector is expected to account for 7 per cent by 2030 and 9 per cent by 2045. Experts believe that with coordinated reforms in institutions, technology, human resources and infrastructure, Việt Nam can transform its cultural heritage into a powerful engine for innovation, economic growth and national soft power in the new era.

The event was held to honour the life, career and immense contributions of cultural figure Lê Quý Đôn, whose recognition by UNESCO underscores the enduring vitality and contemporary value of his legacy in Việt Nam's ongoing nation-building and development.

Lũng Cú is a hard place for people to reach. But increasingly, it is also a place where they choose to stay a little longer.

The HCM City Book Street on Nguyễn Văn Bình Street in Sài Gòn Ward achieved total revenue of VNĐ32.2 billion (US$1.2 million) in the first six months of 2026, a 2.91 per cent year-over-year rise.

Vũ Thế Bình, Chairman of the Vietnam Tourism Association (VITA), said provinces should strengthen regional cooperation by developing integrated tourism routes linking Hà Nội, Quảng Ninh, Hải Phòng, Ninh Bình and neighbouring localities such as Hưng Yên and Bắc Ninh. Such cooperation would create complementary tourism products instead of isolated competition.

Hà Nội has long been known for the heritage cachet of a thousand-year-old capital. Hồ Hoàn Kiếm, the Old Quarter, the Temple of Literature, the Thăng Long Imperial Citadel and a network of craft villages have given the city a singular pull.

The Áo Trắng trio, one of Việt Nam's best-known female pop groups of the 1990s, will reunite on stage in HCM City next month during a rare visit home after more than two decades living in the US.

Between January and July, Hà Nội welcomed approximately 5.31 million international visitors, an increase of 25 per cent compared to the same period in 2025, while the domestic tourist number reached 15.85 million, up 11.9 per cent.
