The above statistics show the diversity of relics, landscapes, and cultural heritages of Khanh Hoa . There are tangible and intangible cultural heritages of the Cham community, Raglai people, and Kinh people; the existing space of cultural heritages is also spread from the plains to the mountains, from islands to plateaus; the types of heritages are also diverse, from historical - cultural relics, landscapes to antiquities, from folk performing arts to traditional crafts, from traditional festivals to architectural arts... All of these create a rich cultural sediment of the land and people of Khanh Hoa with unique identities, beauty, and values.
The cultural heritage treasure is one of the resources contributing to the socio -economic development of the province in the coming time, especially in the context that the Central Government and localities are promoting the development of the cultural industry. The large number of relics, scenic spots, and intangible cultural heritages in the province is the pride of local people, but also poses challenges for management work. The diverse cultural heritage treasure requires provincial authorities and commune-level local authorities to be more closely and thoroughly aware of the preservation, protection, and promotion. The rearrangement of the government apparatus and administrative boundaries also requires those working in cultural heritage management to quickly update information on addresses, management entities, current status, etc. to facilitate the research and promotion of cultural heritage.
Will review and adjust
Based on the guidance of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism on reviewing, adjusting and implementing the determination of administrative units formed after the rearrangement with cultural heritage, the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism has provided guidance on a number of contents related to cultural heritage to localities. Through the review and inspection, basically the relics in the area still retain the same name as at the time of recognition and ranking. In the near future, the department will conduct a review to supplement and update the place names associated with the relics according to the new administrative units...

For relics and national cultural heritages, all are managed by provincial authorities, so new place names associated with relics and cultural heritages will be updated...
According to Mr. Le Van Hoa - Deputy Director of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, based on new regulations and guidelines on cultural heritage, the department has directed the Provincial Center for Monuments Conservation to complete and supplement scientific records of monuments to hand over to communes, wards and special zones after the new local government apparatus comes into stable operation. Thereby, in order to strengthen the work of preserving and promoting the values of tangible cultural heritage in the province. On July 1, the Law on Cultural Heritage 2024 takes effect, so after the documents guiding the implementation of the law are issued, the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism will develop and advise the Provincial People's Committee to promulgate the Regulation on management, protection and promotion of cultural heritage values in Khanh Hoa province. At the same time, direct the Provincial Center for Monuments Conservation to coordinate with communes, wards and special zones to conduct inventory of monuments in the province according to regulations.
