The quantum coherence of a two‐qubit system in which each qubit is coupled to its own hierarchical environment is studied. The effect of the hierarchical environment is explored in order to improve the coherence effectively. It is discovered that the dynamics of coherence can be manipulated by the number N of the second‐layer cavities ( mn$m_{n}$ ), the coupling strengths Ω0, Ω, κ, respectively for the qubit‐cavity (m0), nearest‐neighbor, and m0‐ mn$m_{n}$ cavities. It depends also on the decay rate Γ of second‐layer cavities. Furthermore, an effective scheme for enhancing coherence is proposed by using weak measurement and weak measurement reversal. The explicit conditions of the optimal measurement strengths to improve the coherence comparatively are derived. It is seen that the final stable value of the coherence is independent of the number N of second‐layer cavities but is related to the weak measurement strength m when the coupling strength between two nearest‐neighbor cavities is taken into account.
