History
The proposal for the museum was officially approved on 14 December 1987. Construction lasted from 1987 to 1995, and it was opened to the public on 12 November 1997.[4] The budget for construction of the museum was US$1.9 million, with an additional US$285,000 allocated for acquisition of artifacts.[4]
The exhibition building was designed by the architect Ha Duc Linh, a member of the Tày ethnic group, in the shape of a Đông Sơn drum, and the interior architecture was designed by the French architect Véronique Dollfus.[4]
The second exhibition building focusing on Southeast Asian ethnology was designed in a kite shape and was open in 2013.[3]
