VinHeritage is the world’s first metaverse museum with a focus on the culture and heritage of Vietnam. This museum includes valuable information about ethnic minorities nationwide from VinUni’s “Smart Environment” research project and outstanding works introducing Vietnam by Vinpearl Joint Stock Company. Not only does this museum provide a unique experience of Vietnamese culture and heritage, VinHeritage also aims to create a new and user-friendly educational tool to convey knowledge and inspiration, thereby honouring the beauty and longstanding traditions of Vietnam.

To build this digital museum, the VinUni team utilized metaverse technology, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), 3D modelling techniques combined with artificial intelligence (AI) to deliver the most authentic and diverse experience for users, promoting cultural intersectionality while enhancing language skills.
