Among the 82 Doctoral steles currently remaining at the Temple of Literature – Quoc Tu Giam. The seemingly dry numbers of size or date, when placed in the historical context and people of that time, become vivid, evoking a whole story about the era.
The stele is 153cm high, 115cm wide, 27cm thick, placed on the back of a turtle 160cm long, 100cm wide, 28cm high. Its moderate size allows viewers to easily approach it, while still exuding majesty in the sacred space of the Temple of Literature - a place to honor 82 Doctoral steles, a precious heritage of Vietnamese Confucian education .
In the digital age, heritage is no longer static images. YooLife – a virtual reality social networking platform developed by Vietnamese people brings a new approach, bringing millennial values closer to the community.
In collaboration with the Management Board of the Temple of Literature - Quoc Tu Giam, YooLife realistically recreates the entire space of the relic site, bringing the Doctorate stele of Binh Tuat year (1646) onto a digital platform with a sharp 3D model, vivid to every detail. Visitors can rotate, zoom in, and observe each carving or pattern on the turtle's back - details that are difficult to see clearly when standing in real life. Visiting through YooLife also brings many benefits:
- Access anytime, anywhere : No matter where they are, users can still explore the monument without moving.
- Highly interactive experience : Freely choose your viewing angle, move around in virtual space as if you were there.
- Preservation and Education : Images and information are preserved permanently, supporting learning, research, and the dissemination of historical knowledge.
- Save time and money : Help tourists, researchers, or students easily access heritage without much preparation effort.
The fusion of modern technology and traditional values opens up a journey of heritage discovery that is both intimate and emotional, helping each person to touch the national culture in their hearts.
