Marek MrooApril 4, 2013Get at the square arround 9pm! Guards will take flage down, and if you are lucky, sometimes they will fold it into flower shape! ^^ Worth to see, if you like stuff like this! At 6am they rise the flag
Upvoted 6 days ago- Dwight Jason RonanMay 18, 2015MUST VISIT: Never miss this impressive structure when visiting Hanoi! The queue towards Ho Chi Minh's embalmed body is long but it will only take you less than an hour to pass through the plaza.
Russell HirschornNovember 5, 2016Ho Chi Minh isnt there for three months a year. Check before visiting. If he isnt there go at night, really nice when it is lit. Located near lots of other sites.
Richard BurkhillOctober 19, 2023When you take in the magnitude of what this 1 man means, this is a very special place. Go between 07:00 and 10:30 as otherwise you cannot enter. Free but very strict, no photos, you follow a path.
Bang GeonzonJanuary 14, 2015Best to visit in the afternoon, just before it closes at 4pm.This way you can stay behind, have a snack at the stalls nearby or stroll at the park and wait for the wonderful display lights of the bldg
Jenya SMarch 5, 2019Make sure your knees and shoulders are covered, or they won’t let you into the square. Same as in temple, so always a good idea to carry a scarf for “emergency” cover ups.
Jim A.December 31, 2014Show your respect to the Vietnam leader and dress properly and come in time as the tomb closes before 11am. Must see when you're in Hanoi!
suzy qOctober 24, 2013The 2nd floor doesn't have English descriptions and is a little sparse. However, the 3rd floor has an amazing surrealistic display that is far more interesting than that of the Hanoi Fine Arts Museum
See Lok NgMay 10, 2017A good choice to pay respect to the man who made Vietnam possible. The whole process is very systematic and easy to follow.
Akil CumberbatchJuly 11, 2015One of the main attractions. It is a shame that you're not allowed inside without having booked a tour way in advance.
Benjamin 🚀September 7, 2015Impressive but not a whole bunch to do when you get there. Pack water on a hot day because it gets HOT! 😊🇻🇳
Sally HindMay 3, 2017Impressive building. Make sure you visit the Presidential Palace while in the area.
Micha SamuelDecember 7, 2017A beautiful tomb in the middle of the complex. Lines are long but are kept moving so it does not take long. Inside you will find a very impressing sight.
Renesia Chin Ji YanJanuary 4, 2019It's a lot like Lenin's Mausoleum in Moscow, Russia. The compound is huge but nice that they diverted the crowd so you don't feel like you had to wait for a long time.
Anna BFebruary 1, 2015Free entry. Closed on Mondays & Fridays. Open from 8 to 11am. Last entry @ 10:15. Long queue but moving very fast.
Diane Lucille SuarezFebruary 3, 2017Pretty beautiful. Just remember if you want to see his corpse you have to go in before 11am.
- Szymon KaczmarczykJune 9, 2018Amazing logistics! Never seen such orderly and compliant crowd in my life. I guess armed guards help with that.
Gary DyerAugust 16, 2014It is ok to visit, lots to look at, practically nothing that is linked to Ho Chi Minh. Full of historical inaccuracies and random items. Maybe visit if you cant find anything else to do.- Soyoung ParkFebruary 11, 2013Garden around here is awesome*.* You can see so many exotic trees. Presidential palace is nearby. ;)
Elena KiselevaDecember 16, 2015The garden around is quite fine for jogging. Not that crowdy as in the area of Hoan Kiem Lake.
Jase GoldsmithJanuary 16, 2012A beautiful exhibition of the poetry and inspiration of innovation in this mans life. Closed on Monday and Friday
Jacqueline Gough-EnstoneApril 23, 2019Very long queue. Go very early (6am) & wear suitable clothes ie no shorts or skimpy tops.
get there early to visit. if not, u can still go to the Hochiminh museum- Phat BuoySeptember 9, 2014This iconic building is closed on Sundays. Locals queue for hours to see a dead body. Changing of the guard worth watching.
Tri Nguyen TribizSeptember 9, 2012Maintain 2 months every year from Sept 2nd to November. Visitors can't go inside in this periodHang nam bao tri 2 thang. Bat dau tu 2/9 den thang 11.
Martina BrusatoreSeptember 1, 2016A Very Long way ,But enought fast ,just to see for a few second ho chi mingh.if you are a tourist probably you Can not understand the real meaning of it.

Laura SopraniAugust 6, 2013go early in the morning if you want to see uncle Ho, check out opening days and dress code!
Nat DDecember 20, 2012Definitely check out the museum! It's full of wonderfully abstract displays and exhibits.
Mandi McIntoshSeptember 24, 2013Very few signs in English on first level, gets a bit easier further on.
Shomyza SMarch 3, 2015Too over crowded... Queuing up and walking along the maze was worth it when we finally saw Uncle Ho 😔 but that was all...everything else is ok.

"You can visit the pagoda mausoleum & museum in 1 visit as it is in the same compound. This pagoda is famous for people who wish for a baby boy, they'd come put their offerings & touch the stone lotus."
