Millennia-old jewelry on display in Vietnam"s former imperial city


Some jewelry items, many dating back to the Bronze Age, are on display in the central town of Hue.

The exhibition, which opened Tuesday, includes earrings, necklaces, and bracelets from the Bronze Age Bau Tro civilization that flourished 5,000 years ago in central Vietnam and the Sa Huynh culture dating back 3,000-1,800 years along the central coast.

The highlight is a royal jewelry collection of the Nguyen Dynasty from the 18th to 20th centuries. It features golden tiaras, hairpins, and bracelets encrusted with gemstones.

The exhibition at the Hue Museum of Royal Artifacts, 3 Le Truc Street, will go on until June 28.
