Four Facebook Pages Connecting Art, Business, and Heritage at Sea
In the digital era, Facebook is not just a platform for social networking but also a powerful tool for preserving and promoting Vietnamese art, history, and heritage. Four Facebook pages – Pham Luc Museum, Vua Tau Thuy (King of Ships), Emperor Bao Dai, and Amiral Cruises for Presidents—tell compelling stories about art, entrepreneurship, and Vietnam’s last emperor. These narratives are deeply connected to the business philosophy of Dr. Pham Ha, Chairman of LuxGroup.
Three luxury cruise brands — Emperor Cruises, Amiral Cruises, and Heritage Cruises—offer guests extraordinary travel experiences infused with history, art, and gastronomy, highlighted by the LuxArts Collection featuring Pham Luc’s paintings.
1. Pham Luc Museum – A Floating Art Space
The Pham Luc Museum Facebook page is dedicated to showcasing the works of Pham Luc, known as the “Picasso of Vietnam.” His unique style blends expressionism, impressionism, and realism, utilizing unconventional materials such as military canvas, burlap, and dó paper.
What sets this page apart is its connection to the LuxArts Collection, which is prominently displayed aboard Emperor Cruises, Amiral Cruises, and Heritage Cruises. These cruises are not just about travel but also serve as floating art museums, allowing guests to experience Vietnam’s rich artistic heritage.
•Emperor Cruises offers an imperial experience inspired by Emperor Bao Dai.
•Heritage Cruises honors the maritime legacy of Bach Thai Buoi, Vietnam’s pioneering shipowner.
•Amiral Cruises caters to world leaders, dignitaries, and the ultra-wealthy with an unparalleled level of luxury.
2. Vua Tau Thuy – Honoring the Legacy of Business Pioneer Bach Thai Buoi
The Vua Tau Thuy (King of Ships) Facebook page pays tribute to Bach Thai Buoi (1874–1932), one of Vietnam’s greatest entrepreneurs, who revolutionized the shipping industry and championed national pride with his famous motto:
“Vietnamese people should travel on Vietnamese ships.”
His vision inspired Dr. Pham Ha to create Heritage Cruises, which recreates the legendary Binh Chuan ship, originally launched by Bach Thai Buoi in the early 20th century.
Heritage Cruises offers an experience that blends heritage, culture, and boutique luxury, complete with an onboard gallery featuring Pham Luc’s paintings from the LuxArts Collection. As these cruises sail through Ha Long Bay and the Saigon River, guests are immersed in Vietnam’s maritime history and artistic beauty.
3. Emperor Bao Dai – The Life and Legacy of Vietnam’s Last Emperor
The Emperor Bao Dai Facebook page chronicles the life of Nguyen Phuc Vinh Thuy, the last emperor of Vietnam. He reigned from 1926 to 1945, later becoming Chief of State of the State of Vietnam (1949–1955) before living in exile in France.
His story serves as the inspiration behind Emperor Cruises, the first luxury all-inclusive cruise in Vietnam that recreates the opulent lifestyle of Bao Dai.
Aboard Emperor Cruises, guests are transported back in time to an era of imperial elegance, enjoying unlimited fine wines, gourmet cuisine, and personal butler service, all while surrounded by original paintings from the LuxArts Collection. The cruise also highlights historical villas and palaces once owned by Bao Dai, offering a unique cultural and historical experience.
4. Amiral Cruises for Presidents – Ultimate Luxury for World Leaders
The Amiral Cruises for Presidents Facebook page introduces Amiral Cruises, a super-luxury cruise brand under Lux Cruises Group designed exclusively for heads of state, world leaders, and ultra-high-net-worth individuals.
Inspired by Vietnamese maritime heritage, Amiral Cruises is more than just a cruise—it is an elite sanctuary on the sea, offering a unique combination of privacy, sophistication, and cultural immersion.
Like Emperor Cruises and Heritage Cruises, Amiral Cruises also showcases the LuxArts Collection, featuring exclusive paintings by Pham Luc. This transforms each voyage into a cultural and artistic journey, elevating the experience beyond mere luxury.
5. Dr. Pham Ha – A Visionary Combining Travel, Art, and Heritage
These four Facebook pages do more than share information—they reflect the business philosophy of Dr. Pham Ha, Chairman of LuxGroup. A visionary entrepreneur, he has built luxury tourism brands that seamlessly integrate heritage, art, and culture to create deeply enriching travel experiences.
Each of his three luxury cruise brands tells a distinct yet interconnected story:
•Emperor Cruises – For those who appreciate imperial elegance and the legacy of Bao Dai.
•Heritage Cruises – A tribute to Bach Thai Buoi, bringing history to life through maritime-inspired voyages.
•Amiral Cruises – The epitome of prestige and exclusivity, catering to world leaders and the global elite.
Conclusion
The four Facebook pages—Pham Luc Museum, Vua Tau Thuy, Emperor Bao Dai, and Amiral Cruises for Presidents—are more than just social media channels; they are the foundation of three world-class luxury cruise brands.
•Pham Luc Museum promotes Vietnamese art, enhancing the onboard experience of luxury cruises.
•Vua Tau Thuy celebrates Bach Thai Buoi’s legacy, connecting to Heritage Cruises.
•Emperor Bao Dai is tied to Emperor Cruises, offering a regal experience on the sea.
