Thousands visit President Ho Chi Minh’s Relic Site ahead of 135th birth anniversary

Updated: 16:02, 19/05/2025

In the lead-up to the 135th anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh’s birth (May 19, 1890 - 2025), the Ho Chi Minh Relic Site at the Presidential Palace has welcomed thousands of visitors daily from across Viet Nam. More than 10,000 people have visited the site each day, including students, civil servants, veterans, and international tourists — each coming with deep respect and gratitude for the revered national leader.

Visitors quietly queue to see the stilt house, fishpond, and modest belongings that reflect President Ho Chi Minh’s simple and virtuous life.

Many schools have organised educational visits to mark the occasion. Nghia Dung Primary School brought outstanding pupils to learn about his life and revolutionary legacy through interactive experiences, including QR code-guided tours, 3D reconstructions, and multimedia presentations.

Nguyen Thi Huong from Quang Ninh Province expressed her emotion upon visiting: “Seeing the place where Uncle Ho lived and worked reminds me of his great sacrifice and humble lifestyle.” Similarly, young visitor Nguyen Thanh Phuong shared a sense of pride and inspiration, noting the powerful impact of standing in the very place where history was made.

To serve the surge in visitors, the site has launched special programmes such as the exhibition “President Ho Chi Minh — Essence of the nation, stature of the times”, a photo display of his years at the Presidential Palace (1954–1969), and the unveiling of the book 135 Stories about Uncle Ho.

Recognised as a Special National Relic since 2009, the 14.7-hectare site preserves 20 key locations and over 1,700 artifacts associated with President Ho Chi Minh’s final 15 years of life and leadership.
