Ho Chi Minh Museum

The Ho Chi Minh Museum in Hanoi is really something. I'm glad we took a few hours out from our shopping frenzy to do some 'tourist' stuff and came here! I'd thought that it would be something like the one in Ho Chi Minh City but wow!, I was so mistaken!


It was a really well-planned and well-designed place, and very modern and artistic. More like an art museum. I imagine it must have been planned and designed with the help of the French. Everything was very well documented, and original documents were so well preserved in individual glass casings that could be turned, like pages. If not for the reminders of the Vietnam War, I could have been in a museum in France.
