After landing in Hà Nội, Việt Nam and spending half a day to rest up, I headed over to the Ba Đình District southeast of Hồ Tây to squeeze in a few tourist activities prior to Tempo’s The Bazaar event coming up on Saturday.

One of the spots I checked out was Bảo tàng Hồ Chí Minh, which translates to the Ho Chi Minh Museum. Not everything had English translations so there was a lot of information I couldn’t understand, but all the exhibits on display were still nice to look at and were fairly unique and different from what I’m used to seeing in museums in the United States.

Here is a collection of photographs I took of the building, exhibits, and gift shops:
