This historical and legal evidence, selected from over 260 maps and atlases, confirms Vietnam's undeniable sovereignty over these two archipelagos while rejecting China's distorted arguments and unreasonable claims of sovereignty over these archipelagos and other islands in the East Sea.
Documentary photos of the Hoang Sa and Truong Sa archipelagos dating from the colonial period, photos featuring the daily life of soldiers and islanders, plus research papers by Vietnamese and foreign scholars are also on display at the exhibition, which will run through Thursday.
