Excellent historical places in Vietnam

Ho Chi Minh Museum is situated at Hanoi. This is an attractive place. People interested in history come to visit the place from all over the country. In the year 1977 just after the American War this Ho Chi Minh Museum was planned. It was done with the assistance of the Soviet Government. The museum opened on the centennial of Uncle Ho’s birth. The first gallery was full of photos, artifacts, and documents from Ho’s life. But the upper gallery was really impressive. It was thought as a serial of post-modernist art facilities. Altogether there were eight themes. The tradition was radical. It can be mentioned as the ‘experiential’ art of 1970s. Some of the displays were inexplicable. Some of the other exhibits were like an all-white Edsel rising from a wall. A tilted table is also there bearing a monumental bananas and pineapple. You can say these don’t seem to have any relation with Ho Chi Minh. We can say that the Edsel symbolizes America’s failure during the war while pineapple symbolizes just the fruit. Even if you are not a historical person go and visit the museum in Honoi.

Bai Tu Long: Many travelers book tours Bai Tu Long which is situated just to the north. Bai Tu Long has almost same geography as Ha Long. But this place is usually free of tourists. You can enjoy boat ride with many other people. The trips include overnights on islands like Quan Lan and Van Don. These islands offer good alternatives to the obligatory stay on Cat Ba. But Cat Ba is not up to the mark.
