The People’s Committee of Thua Thien-Hue Province has approved an allocation of VND105 billion (USD5 million) to restore the tomb of King Tu Duc.
The funds, partially from the state budget will go towards restoration of many of the architectural works within the complex, located in Hue.
At the end of 2013, the Hue Ancient Capital Preservation Centre completed the restoration of three of the pavilions namely Xung Khiem Ta, Du Khiem Ta and Khiem Cung Mon, at a cost of VND26 billion.
Tu Duc's Tomb is considered one of the most beautiful architectural works in Hue, but has suffered damage due to weather and war over the years.
