The Deputy PM also asked the Ministry of Defence, along with relevant ministries and agencies, to work closely with the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum Management Board to preserve relics relating to President Ho Chi Minh’s revolutionary life.

The relic site is located about 70km from downtown Hanoi to the west on the Ba Vi mountain range.

The memorial site holds historical and political significance and introduces visitors to the revolutionary life of President Ho Chi Minh, as well as his contributions to the revolutionary cause of the nation.

In May 1957, President Ho Chi Minh decided to choose it as a place to work and rest for the Party Central Committee.

Many decisions and instructions of the Party Central Committee were issued here, contributing to the liberation of the South and the national reunification in 1975.
