includes illustrations and videos to guide visitors around the relic site.
Three languages available are Vietnamese, English and Japanese.
The centre will work with app developers to update French and Chinese versions

An intriguing relic of Vietnam and, signifying its historical and
cultural importance, the Imperial Citadel was recognised as a UNESCO World
Heritage Site in 2010. At the citadel, many artefacts and items dating back to
between the 6th and 20th centuries were excavated in 2004, including foundations
of old palaces, ancient roads, ponds and wells. On top of these discoveries,
archaeologists also found bronze coins, ceramics and pottery from many places
in Asia, all of which demonstrate a close trading relationship in the area.
