An exhibition highlighting the life and career of President Hồ Chí Minh before leaving the country on his national salvation journey is being held in HCM City.

A virtual exhibition that is on now reveals how Hanoi's markets came to be and historical stories about them.

April 30, 1975, started a new era in Việt Nam – one of independence and socialism for the whole country with the liberation of the south and the reunification of the nation.

A book collection on HCM City, dealing with its history and developments between 1945-2015, has been published by the National Political Publishing House to mark the 47th National Reunification Day (April 30.)

An exhibition on the late General Võ Nguyên Giáp (1911-2013) opened in Hà Nội this morning on the occasion of his 110th birth anniversary and the 77th founding anniversary of the Việt Nam People’s Army.

Years may have passed, but the deep impressions left by former diplomat Lê Đức Thọ as one of the key players during negotiations with the US which led to the signing of the Paris Peace Accords in 1973 – an agreement to end the war and restore peace in Việt Nam – still shines bright.

In honour of the 110th anniversary of General Võ Nguyên Giáp birthday (August 25, 1911), a contest on the late general will be held at the end of July.

An online symposium on the life, thoughts and career of President Hồ Chí Minh took place in New York on Tuesday on the occasion of the late leader’s 130th birthday.

Hồ Chí Minh has touched the lives of many and influenced generations of people around the world. But one man has been so moved by the great leader he has converted a room in his home in Hanoi into a tribute to Việt Nam's amazing President.
