Huế Museum of Royal Fine Arts

The Huế Museum of Royal Fine Arts is a museum dedicated to Vietnam's imperial past and arts of that era. It is located in the former imperial capital of Huế.

By royal decree of 1927, a section for the art of Champa was also instituted.[1]

In 2016, an exhibition called "Royal Treasures of the Nguyen dynasty" was shown, with pieces that were moved to Hanoi after 1945 for safekeeping.[2][3]
