Visit the iconic Reunification Palace Ho Chi Minh City, formerly known as the Independence Palace. This landmark building in District 1 HCMC is profoundly linked to the end of the Vietnam War, famously captured in images of North Vietnamese tanks crashing through its gates on April 30, 1975, marking the fall of Saigon site. Explore the preserved state rooms, presidential quarters, command bunkers, and war rooms, left largely untouched since 1975.
Touring the Independence Palace Saigon offers a fascinating glimpse into the turbulent Vietnam War history and the political past of South Vietnam. The building itself is also a striking example of 1960s Vietnamese architecture. It's a must-visit historical site for understanding modern Vietnamese history.
