The Independence Palace, also known as the Reunification Convention Hall, stands as a powerful emblem of Vietnam's turbulent history and resilience. Located in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City, this architectural marvel was the home and workplace of the President of South Vietnam during the Vietnam War. It witnessed the end of the conflict when a North Vietnamese Army tank breached its gates on April 30, 1975. Today, it serves as a museum and a reminder of the country's journey towards independence and reunification.
