    20230617 Morning: 1. The "Former Residence of Ho Chi Minh" is located in "Bating Square" in Vietnam. Bating Square is an iconic landscape in Hanoi, Vietnam's capital. The political center of Vietnam, in 1945, Vietnam's national leader and father of the country Ho Chi Minh announced the founding of the country in this square. His body has been stored in the "Ho Chi Minh Memorial Hall" on the square. Therefore, the significance of Bating Square is similar to China's Tiananmen Square and Russia's Red Square. It is a national assembly square, with flag-raising ceremony held every 6:30 in the morning and honor guards at 10:00. "Bating" is a township in Eshan County, Qinghua Province, Vietnam. In 1880s, the anti-French movement "Bating Uprising" broke out in this township. Bating Square was named as a memorial. Entering the park is free and requires security checks. ① Address: downtown Hanoi, Vietnam. ② Transportation: It is easy to drive. ③ peak season: No. ④ duration: 2 hours. ⑤ Note: The Ho Chi Minh Memorial Hall is closed from June 14 to August 16 every year (maintaining Ho Chi Minh's crystal coffins and remains), and every Monday and Friday. 2. The area of Bating Square is not large, Ho Chi Minh's former residence/President's Mansion is located on the northwest side of the square, and is a garden-style French building complex, including: ① President's Mansion: a bright yellow French villa built by French Auguste • Henry, built in 1906, with a total of 30 rooms. It was named one of the 13 most beautiful residences in the world by the American Architectural Digest magazine. During the French colonial period, the presidential palace was used as the "pre-French Indochina Federal Governor's Mansion". After Japan's defeat and surrender in 1945, according to the division of the Allied headquarters, China assumed the task of landing in Vietnam north of 16 degrees north latitude. In this building, the famous anti-Japanese patriotic general Lu Han participated as a Chinese representative. The ceremony accepted the surrender of six people, including Japanese representatives and 38th Army Commander Tuqiao Yongyi, and became the only overseas landing place in China. The presidential palace, which was then the office of successive Vietnamese presidents, including Ho Chi Minh (that is, Vietnam’s current president, the more friendly Wu Wen appreciation to China, may be in this building at this time, only 100 meters away from me), and has also received visits from many leaders. The presidential palace is currently not open to tourists, and can only watch and take pictures. In order to remember the history of French colonialism, Ho Chi Minh was unmarried and had no children for life, so he only worked in the presidential palace and did not live. He lived in the electrician dormitory shed next to the villa for a simple life. There was no toilet in the shed. ② Office complex: almost all bright yellow French buildings, the interior is currently used as exhibitions, there are graphic exhibition rooms, home furnishings, and classic car showrooms (3 Ho Chi Minh's original car: one is a Soviet Gis brand, is the top bulletproof car of Stalin's era, The car is a red flag car; the other two are the Jim brand and the French logo, the latter is the loot of the victory of the anti-French war), and there is a two-story building surrounded by no walls, which is the office place of Ho Chi Minh in the summer, and it is cooler and breathable. ③ Mango Road: A boulevard, named after the mango trees planted on both sides, is full of ripe mangoes that fell. Ho Chi Minh used to walk and exercise on this road. At present, there are Ho Chi Minh's life introductions on both sides of the road. Peacocks are also raised in the bird cage on the lawn.

    When you come to Hanoi, the former residence of Ho Chi Minh is definitely a memorial attraction that should not be missed. The former residence of Chairman Ho Chi Minh is located in the large garden behind the Chairman's Mansion. There is a road full of mango trees on both sides. It is usually a sports walk in this place after work, which leads to Chairman Hu's home. President Hu is a leader of a country, but life is simple and quiet. His residence also has the same characteristics as himself. The house is a wooden building, designed in the style of a high-rise house of Vietnamese ethnic minorities. There are two floors, two rooms upstairs, as a bedroom and winter office. Downstairs is Chairman Hu's summer office and meeting guests. The high-footed house of Chairman Hu was preserved as a relics after his death, and all the furnishings in the house were kept as much as possible as possible to keep the appearance of Chairman Hu.

    Ho Chi Minh's former residence is located in the presidential palace beside Bating Square. It is a two-storey all-wooden high-footed house. Ho Chi Minh suspected that the presidential palace was too extravagant and lived here for a long time. The lower floor of the high-legged house is the meeting room, with conference tables and chairs. There are no walls except the pillars, so summer can be a summer resort. There are two rooms on the upper floor of the high-feet house. The left room is a bedroom with a common wooden bed. The right room is an office, with only one wooden table and several wooden chairs. The whole high-footed house is as simple and elegant as its owner. The main building of the presidential palace is a rather luxurious French villa. The garden is quiet and elegant, and there are interesting and rare Bodhisattva trees planted, whose roots will grow upwards to form a natural statue.

    The former residence of Ho Chi Minh is located a stone's throw from the tomb of the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. The presidential palace is a French-style villa built by Germans, and the life of the extremely simple Ho Chi Minh chooses to live in a simple, high-rise house built of wood next to the villa. The upper floor of the former residence is Ho Chi Minh's office and bedroom, and the lower floor is the conference room. When Ho Chi Minh was alive, the Politburo of the Vietcong Central Committee held more meetings here. On the west side of the house is a corridor, on the east side there are offices, reception rooms and lounge rooms, and there are wooden tables and chairs used by Chairman Hu. There are old-fashioned telephones, typewriters, military maps and Marx and Lenin books that the owner has read. The whole house is as simple and elegant as its owner.
