Ho Chi Minh City | Reunification Palace | A must-visit local landmark.

| A must-visit local landmark. Located in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, the Reunification Palace is a symbol of the city's glorious history and unique architectural charm. This magnificent building, which was built on February 23, 1869, was originally named "Norodom Palace" and was a symbol of French power during the colonial period in Indochina. However, as history moved forward, in 1954, with the withdrawal of French forces, the palace was solemnly returned to the Vietnamese people and was renamed the "Independence Palace" and the "Reunification Palace", becoming a symbol of Vietnamese independence and national freedom. The Reunification Palace covers a vast area of 120,000 square meters and is a magnificent palace complex dominated by pure white. The interior layout is exquisite, with more than 100 large and small halls scattered around, each revealing luxury and solemnity, perfectly meeting the needs of various high-end activities from diplomatic banquets to national conferences. The courtyard design of the palace is even more ingenious, cleverly blending French romance with tropical style, showing both exquisite and elegant horticultural aesthetics and a strong exotic atmosphere. Walking outside the Reunification Palace, you can see green grass, blooming flowers, and chirping birds, like a vivid natural scroll. It is not only a witness to history, but also one of the iconic attractions of modern Ho Chi Minh City, attracting countless tourists to come and check in. In the Reunification Palace, every step is stepping on the echo of history, and every eye is full of longing for freedom. It is undoubtedly the best choice to explore Vietnamese culture and experience Vietnamese customs.
