From September 1 the Ho Chi Minh Museum in Ha Noi will no longer have a lunch break and remain open from 8am to 5pm every day, except on Mondays and Fridays when it will open only from 8am to noon.

Large groups of international visitors can also visit the museum on Doi Can Street outside normal hours by contacting the curator in advance.

It was built in 1985 and inaugurated on May 19, 1990, to coincide with the 100th birthday of the late President.-VNS
