Khuôn viên xanh mát là điều mình thích nhất ở đây. Mình đi đến bằng xe máy, cổng vào cho xe máy khá nhỏ, các bạn chú ý phía bên trái sẽ có một lối nhỏ, tránh tốn công đi lạc rồi phải đánh một vòng lại.

獨立宮主要是在介紹南北越統一的過程,由於這一段歷史相當複雜,推薦大家租用語音導覽,才能瞭解來龍去脈,否則只是在參觀一堆會議室與硬體設施。完整的聽完導覽可能需要 3.5-4.0小時。 注意:售票亭與入口處是在有一個大噴水池的那一頭,與 Google Maps 提供的路線完全不同,千萬別被帶錯路了!

£1.30 entry free. I definitely recommend visiting this imposing palace of modern 1960s architecture, incorporating key Classical Chinese characters of Eastern philosophy. The outside of the building resonates a bamboo style, whilst inside the corridors are airy and bright, and the state rooms are Eastern and opulent. Don’t miss the bunker in the basement! The history is clearly explained for each area. There is an audio tour and there are plenty of toilets!

Relativ interessanter Ort, um ein wenig die Geschichte der Stadt kennenzulernen. Der Palast ist nicht riesig, aber auch nicht klein. Es ist definitiv gut, wenn man ein paar Treppen laufen kann, ohne groß außer Atem zu sein. Es gibt zwar auch Aufzüge, aber bis ganz nach oben kommt man nur über die Treppen. Außerhalb des Palastes gibt es ein kleines Café, falls man eine Pause braucht.
