Piece of history: One of the 82 stone steles at the Temple of Literature, recording examinations organised under feudalism. The stele is part of an exhibition on the history of Vietnam’s imperial examinations through documentary heritage of the world. The 34,555 woodblocks of the Nguyen Dynasty helped to record official literature and history as well as classic and historical books. The 82 stone steles have great value in sculpture and calligraphy. The exhibition will run until April 5 at the Temple of Literature, 58 Quoc Tu Giam Street, Hanoi.
