ABSTRACT

I. Generally, urban cities often closely connect to commerce and industry, and Vietnam is not an exception. However, the typical characteristic of Thang Long ­ Hanoi is academic education system from the dawn of city:
- Royal College and Temple of Literature is a clear evidence of education following Confucian theory of Thang Long from 11th century to end of 18th century.
- Hanoi is considered as one of the education hubs of Indochina during period of French colony.
- From 1945, especially after 1954, Hanoi is one of the educational centres specializing in universitarian education of the republic of Vietnam.
Without ellite education ­ universitarian education, Thang Long ­ Hanoi would have been much different than it is today. Universitarian education plays a role as moving power for promoting 1000-year Thang Long's.culture.
II. Universitarian education and an idea for building a Royal College of modern time within the framework of Hanoi general planning contributes to enhance the city's cuture in competition, integration and substainable development.
