For me it was great to see a communist monument like this! In the middle of Hanoi, I highly recommend a short visit, do keep n mind it is closed at some point every year !

not a lot to say explorer yourself no more words to say just do it this 😅100 words are silly easy go any where

we could not go inside the mausoleum but we still loved it. The complex is big and good just to walk around, but it is nice if you have a local guide to tell you some things.

This is a very impressive Tomb of the famous Ho Chi Minh. Unfortunately we couldnt enter,as it was closed. We witnessed the changing of the guard,which was very impressive !!

You don't have to sign up for the mandatory organised tours to visit this place. Very spacious and cool at night with lots of local folks. This place is family friendly and good for couples.

I agree with other reviews that say it is "a must see to appreciate". It was incredibly hot the day we went and you walk for quite a while underneath sheltered verandah's until you finally reach the mausoleum. It is so cool and peaceful and you automatically feel like you are in a very revered place where the utmost respect... More
