Located close to the Hồ Chí Minh Mausoleum, the Hồ Chí Minh Museum was opened on 19 May 1990, President Hồ Chí Minh's birthday. Housed in a four-storey building designed in the shape of a lotus flower to reflect the President’s noble character, the 10,000 square-metre museum depicts the life and times of Hồ Chí Minh and his major contribution to the founding of the Socialist Republic of Việt Nam. The main showroom exhibits more than 2,000 documents, articles, pictures and exhibits illustrating not only President Hồ Chí Minh’s achievements, but also the most important contemporaneous events that occurred throughout the rest of the world during his lifetime. The museum also incorporates a library, a large hall, meeting rooms and research rooms. Since its opening, the museum has welcomed thousands of local and international visitors.
