Introduction

Independence Palace, formerly known as the Governor's Palace and later renamed Norodom Palace, is one of the most important landmarks in Ho Chi Minh City. Built at the end of the 19th century, it was destroyed and rebuilt in the 1960s. On April 30, 1975, it was taken over by the Vietnamese military, marking the end of the Vietnam War. It now serves as a government meeting place and a tourist attraction, featuring multiple areas such as banquet halls, cabinet meeting rooms, and a library. The palace's design is full of symbolism, with cultural references such as the "Ji" character and various concepts. Visitors can enjoy traditional music performances or take a break in the pavilion, and experience Vietnam's rich history and culture.
