On an area of nearly 40,000 m2, the museum owns tens of thousands of artifacts, valuable documents and images reflecting the material, spiritual, religious, customary and folk art of Vietnamese ethnic groups. The display space vividly recreates traditional houses, labor tools, costumes, musical instruments and typical cultural rituals of each region.




The most attractive thing about the museum is not only the number of artifacts but also the way it tells stories about people. Each costume, khen, basket or stilt house contains memories, knowledge and identity of a community that has been nurtured through many generations. The museum is therefore like a "miniature Vietnam", where visitors can take a journey through cultural regions without leaving Thai Nguyen.


For those who work in research, journalism or love photography, this is a particularly valuable destination. Amidst the context of urbanization and strong integration, these heritage spaces bring a deep perspective on ethnic cultural identity. Each artifact is no longer a silent legacy of the past, but becomes a vivid reminder of the responsibility to preserve and pass on roots to future generations.


To understand a nation, it is necessary to listen to the stories they leave behind through life and memories. And in the tea land of Thai Nguyen, the story of that pride is still being told every day, intact through each artifact.
