The small house in the Dongmen area of Liuzhou where Ho Chi Minh lived during his periods in the city has been preserved as a memorial museum. It is a modest structure — a single-storey wooden building with period furnishings — but the exhibits contextualise Ho's time in Guangxi within the broader history of the Vietnamese independence movement and the connections between Chinese and Vietnamese revolutionary politics of the 1940s.
The museum is rarely crowded and the staff are engaged. Ho's presence in Liuzhou is a reminder of how interconnected southern China and northern Vietnam were during the anti-colonial movements of the 20th century — not just geographically but ideologically. The exhibits include photographs, documents, and personal effects that are presented without the triumphalist packaging that tends to follow Ho Chi Minh through the tourist sites of Vietnam. Entry is free.
