Beijing (VNA) – The Hongyan Revolutionary Memorial Hall in China’s southwestern city of Chongqing has become a popular destination for tourists seeking to learn about revolutionary activities of communist leaders such as Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai of China, and especially President Ho Chi Minh, and holds a special significance for Vietnamese people residing in China.

At this memorial site, there is a small room on the second floor that served as the living and working space of President Ho Chi Minh in 1939-1940 in China. The room contains simple items such as a single bed, a set of working desk and chair, bookshelves, and a few other objects.

Each item in this room evokes memories about a time filled with challenges during the revolutionary history of Vietnam, showing a simple way of life, the humble and modest style of the late Vietnamese leader.

On the occasion of the 133rd birth anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh, representatives of the Vietnamese Embassy in Algeria laid a wreath at the boulevard named after him in the capital city of Algiers.

On May 19 morning, they also offered incense to the late President at the embassy.

The overseas Vietnamese in Laos also held various activities to pay respect to the late President on the occasion./.
