The book, entitled “Hoang Hoa Su Trinh Do” (Itinerary Maps of the Imperial Envoys), was inscribed in the Asia-Pacific register of significant archives following a meeting of MOWCAP on Wednesday.

The original document was compiled by a mandarin named Nguyen Huy Oanh from 1765 to 1768. He used writings, drawings and maps from other envoys and added details of his journey from 1766 to 1767. The book belongs to the Nguyen Huy clan in the central province of Ha Tinh.
