THUA THIEN HUE — A workshop on preserving the traditional architecture of Co Tu ethnic group in Nam Dong District of the central province of Thua Thien Hue gathered dozens of domestic and foreign scientists on Monday.

From their research, scientists shared experience in rebuilding and restoring communal houses on stilts (known in local name as "nha Guoi") and organising public tourism activities to preserve local traditional architecture.

Participants hold that the restoration work should meet strict requirements on traditional culture and creating a living cultural space among ecological tourism spaces. — VNS
