The exhibition aimed to pay tribute to the ancestors of the Vietnamese people and the scientists who discovered Dong Son, the most brilliant culture in the national history, 100 years ago. In particular, bronze casting techniques during that period were found to reach perfection with bronze drums fully converging the scientific knowledge of the era as well as the talent and soul of the Vietnamese people.

On display is a collection of unique bronze drums kept at the Hanoi Museum, which has decoded the bronze drum casting technique and the ancestral custom of worshipping the bronze drum god - the Co Dong God in Hanoi thousands of years ago.

At the exhibition, the Co Loa bronze drum - a national treasure - was chosen as a highlight to tell the public historical stories related to the artifact.
