    The house is little known and not many people visit; along with the devastation after many years of not being cared for and cleaned, the villa area becomes cold even though the walls are still painted, fresh, and ancient.

    It is known that in 22, Doan Huy Hoang, Queen Tu Cung, used his own money to buy this ancient house as a place to live. Before her death, she left a will to hand over the entire house to the government. For a while, the Hue Monuments Conservation Center took over the place and organized the exhibition of some artifacts associated with the life of Mrs. Tu Cung. But after the artifacts were moved to An Dinh Palace, the house fell into a state of "forgottenness".

    On July 17, speaking with a reporter from Lao Dong Newspaper, Mr. Hoang Viet Trung - Director of the Hue Monuments Conservation Center - said that the center is currently calling for socialized investment in this memorial house to improve space and promote heritage values. We are calling for and really hope that there will be a truly dedicated investor with the potential to turn the memorial house at this beautiful location into a heritage education space, along with displaying valuable documents about Queen Mother Tu Cung to serve tourism, education and maximize the value of heritage, said Mr. Trung.
