Cultural Sustainability of Hoi an Ancient Houses in the process of becoming the World Cultural Heritage City

Research on Hoi An Ancient Town reveals critical insights into the cultural sustainability of its heritage houses, addressing gaps in current knowledge. The study highlights the need for balanced development to preserve the town's unique architectural value while aligning with its vision as an eco-cultural-tourism city. Through an in-depth literature review and surveys of five ancient houses, the authors demonstrate how cultural sustainability can mitigate challenges posed by industrialization and modernization. This work provides a framework for integrating heritage preservation into broader sustainable development goals, offering practical solutions for similar World Heritage Sites facing similar pressures.
