For a pilot fee of 30,000 VND per use, visitors can experience the automated audio guide system at 14 points within the historical site in 8 languages: Vietnamese, English, French, Spanish, Korean, Japanese, Thai, and Chinese.

To enjoy the experience, visitors simply use the pre-installed device and select the point they want the commentary on. The device is conveniently connected to headphones and does not disturb those around them.

Mr. Le Xuan Kieu, Director of the Van Mieu-Quoc Tu Giam Cultural and Scientific Activities Center, said that the Center regularly provides guided tours in English for foreign tourists, but this only caters to a certain number of group visitors. Individual visitors and those of other nationalities are still not adequately served. Many visitors to the site lack access to information about the historical site.

Therefore, the unit has developed explanatory content through stories about the Temple of Literature - National University in eight commonly used languages. This content was advised by cultural experts and thoroughly reviewed before implementation.

Listening to guided tours will give visitors a better understanding of the diverse values ​​of the Temple of Literature - National University.

On this occasion, the Van Mieu-Quoc Tu Giam Cultural and Scientific Activities Center also put into use a new signage system and ticket office to serve visitors. The new signage system and ticket office are designed based on inspiration from the doctoral steles.
