Nhà sàn Bác Hồ
Nhà sàn Bác Hồ stands in the Presidential Palace gardens in Hà Nội, surrounded by fruit trees, flowers, and a pond. The wooden house follows traditional Tay and Thai stilt-house forms from Viet Bac.
Architect Nguyen Van Ninh designed it in 1958, and Ho Chi Minh lived and worked here until 1969. The open ground floor holds a long table and wooden chairs for summer work and guests. Upstairs, a working room and bedroom contain essential objects from his daily life.
The house measures 10.5 metres long and 6.2 metres wide across two floors. Fish move through the peaceful pond beside this modest residence.
