The leaders of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism affirmed that they always pay great attention to the museum and relic sector. Museums under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism all have special characteristics and advantages such as beautiful locations and great specialization, so museums need to try to be more creative to have impressive exhibitions, attracting more tourists. That is also the result of promoting the value of the cultural heritage that we are holding. "Museums and relic sites need to have activities to attract tourists through exhibitions and thematic displays in addition to the general inventory. We need to be proactive, communicate, and connect with local departments, branches, and schools to attract tourists. There must be proposals beyond the scope to be more effective, spreading the heritage values ​​that we are preserving, conserving and promoting the values", Mr. Hoang Dao Cuong requested.
