After the 'stay-at-home' order applied to Da Nang’s population has been lifted, many museums citywide have resumed their operations at 70% capacity.

Over recent days, the museums have been busy cleaning and rearranging their exhibits in preparation for their further reopenings after several months of closure due to the resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic.
