A wood block of Vĩnh Nghiêm pagoda |
The collection of wood blocks of Buddhist prayer-books, Việt Nam’s treasure, is preserved well at Vĩnh Nghiêm pagoda.
Since 2008, the Department of Culture, Sport and Tourism of Bắc Giang has inventoried, numbered and translated the wood blocks, and drafted a scientific dossier on those blocks for submitting it to the UNESCO for recognition as a World Documentary Heritage./.
