Deputy Minister Hoang Dao Cuong emphasized: President Ho Chi Minh not only left our nation a glorious revolutionary career unprecedented in history, he also left our entire Party and people a noble legacy, which is a shining example of the moral qualities of a revolutionary, symbolizing the most beautiful things in the soul, will, and personality of the nation and humanity. International friends praised him: "Those who know what a real person is, where the beauty of the world is, where the victory of truth is, where there is spring, please come visit Vietnam, visit the life of President Ho Chi Minh". In that sense, the President Ho Chi Minh Relic Site at the Presidential Palace is the eternally precious land of Uncle Ho, where the thoughts, ethics, and style of Ho Chi Minh converge and spread deeply. When looking into the everyday stories he left here, each of us in modern life today can still find great lessons. His stories have become classics, leaving behind for posterity not only the image and thoughts of a great man but also the mark of one of the most heroic periods in the nation's history.

The Deputy Minister believes that in the new journey, with courage, dynamism and creativity, the President Ho Chi Minh Relic Site at the Presidential Palace will continue to strive to affirm its position as a special national relic, the leading relic in the system of memorial relics of President Ho Chi Minh, as the late General Secretary Nguyen Phu Trong once said: “The President Ho Chi Minh Relic Site at the Presidential Palace is a very sacred address, a place where all people in the country and international friends come to remember Uncle Ho, understand his great contributions and especially a place to study and follow the great example of President Ho Chi Minh. Coming here, everyone will be calm, reflect on themselves to cultivate, practice and work worthy of Uncle Ho”.

Preserved intact as when he lived and worked

Ms. Le Thi Phuong, Director of the President Ho Chi Minh Relic Site at the Presidential Palace, shared: During his revolutionary life, President Ho Chi Minh lived and worked in many places, but the Presidential Palace was honored to be the place where he was associated with him the longest - the last 15 years of his life (1954-1969). This place permanently preserves the image, memories of the ideology, morality, and style of the great leader Ho Chi Minh, the Hero of the Vietnamese national liberation, an outstanding cultural figure, an international communist soldier, a loyal friend of progressive and peace-loving humanity.

This place permanently preserves the image and memories of the ideology, morality, and style of the great leader Ho Chi Minh, the Vietnamese national liberation hero, an outstanding cultural figure, an international communist soldier, and a loyal friend of progressive and peace-loving humanity.

As one of the first 10 relics in the country to be ranked as a special national relic, the leading relic in the system of memorial relics of Uncle Ho, the Relic Site is currently effectively carrying out two political tasks in parallel: Preserving and maintaining the original state of his residence and workplace at the Presidential Palace as he lived and worked during his lifetime; effectively promoting the legacy of President Ho Chi Minh at the Presidential Palace. In which, preserving and maintaining the original state of the relic is the core political task; promoting the value of the relic is an important political task.

The Relic Site does not have massive, grandiose structures that overwhelm, but rather simple, familiar grounds. Although the scale and architecture are not large, they contain the intellectual qualities, thoughts, and noble style of a great man. Spanning 15 particularly important years in the life and revolutionary career of President Ho Chi Minh, all the material heritages from the house, objects to the landscape of trees, roads, fish ponds, etc., along with the profound and rich spiritual heritages that he left behind have converged into "the old Uncle Ho's realm" with a complete, original "historical - cultural memory field", which can be affirmed to be rare in the system of relics and souvenirs about him.

Deputy Minister Hoang Dao Cuong presented Certificates of Merit from the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism to individuals and collectives with outstanding achievements in preserving and promoting the value of the Relic Site.

"After President Ho Chi Minh passed away, the cadres who served him volunteered to stay, devoting their hearts and efforts to taking care of and preserving his relics, from his house, garden, fish pond to his daily utensils. 55 years have passed, but the Uncle Ho Relic Site at the Presidential Palace is still carefully and thoughtfully protected and preserved. All relics, documents and artifacts of President Ho Chi Minh at the Presidential Palace are being preserved intact as they were during his lifetime.

Continuing the glorious tradition, the collective of civil servants and workers of the Relic Site are always deeply aware of the honor and pride of serving the glorious cause. This is not only a job, a responsibility, a duty, but above all, it is the love and respect offered to Uncle Ho, the burning desire, the earnest desire to preserve and maintain his heritage and spread more deeply and widely the countless affections he left here to the majority of compatriots in the country and international friends" - Ms. Le Thi Phuong affirmed./.

In this series of commemorative activities, the Relic Site organized the award ceremony of the Contest "Explanator at the President Ho Chi Minh Relic Site at the Presidential Palace" and the Photography Contest "The Beauty of the President Ho Chi Minh Relic Site at the Presidential Palace"; opened the exhibition "55 years since Uncle Ho passed away, 55 years of preserving and promoting the value of the President Ho Chi Minh Relic Site at the Presidential Palace (1969-2024)". These are meaningful activities, contributing to making the image, value and position of the Relic Site more vivid in the hearts of the public.
