|
Experts from Viet Nam Archaeology Association yesterday started a 15sq.m area at the Voi Phuc (Kneeling Elephant) Temple in Ha Noi.
The temple, in Thuy Khue Street, was built in the 11th century as one of four sacred temples guarding the four main entrances to Thang Long Citadel (former name of Ha Noi).
It was recognised as a vestige of national culture relic in 1962. The building has been repaired many times throughout its history.
The work will last for 10 days

Dang Thuy Tram diary published in Russian
|
The Embassy of Vietnam in Russia announced on September 20 that 3,500 copies of “Dang Thuy Tram diary” have been published in Russian to offer to readers.
The diary tells about a doctor-martyr who sacrificed in the fight against foreign aggression for national liberation, like so many other young Vietnamese at the time.
Vietnamese Ambassador to Russia Pham Xuan Son expressed his hope that the diary will become a bridge between Vietnamese and Russian literature to help strengthen the mutual understanding and traditional friendship between the two countries.
At the book presentation ceremony, many Russians expressed their admiration for the Vietnamese hero and considered the book as one of Vietnam’s valuable publications which have been translated into Russian so far.
Dang Thuy Tram diary has been translated into 18 foreign languages and highly appreciated by international readers.
