Right after the ceremony, the delegates and overseas Vietnamese visited the complex’s memorial house that spotlights the late President’s significant contribution to national liberation and the Vietnam – Laos special friendship.
The over-1.5-hectare commemorative site, put into operation on December 7, 2012, aims at raising the awareness among younger generations of the revolutionary life of President Ho Chi Minh as well as the special ties between the two nations.
