"Uncle Ho's House": From the shadow of battle to a historical tourist attraction

When people talk about "Uncle Ho's House," many think of the great Vietnamese leader. But in Nakhon Phanom province, Uncle Ho's House is more than that; it's a historical testament that connects the two countries.

Uncle Ho's House, also known as Ho Chi Minh's House, is located in Na Chok Village, Mueang District, Nakhon Phanom Province. It is a Thai-Vietnamese style house and once served as a refuge for Ho Chi Minh when he fled Vietnam to seek ways to regain his country's independence.

This house was not just a residence, but also the center of planning and movements for the liberation of Vietnam. The villagers affectionately called Ho Chi Minh "Uncle Ho," and the house became known as "Uncle Ho's House."

There are two houses on the grounds. The first belonged to Ho Chi Minh's comrades and served as his initial accommodation upon arrival. He moved into the second house later. This house is well-preserved today and open as a historical tourist attraction. It houses exhibits about Ho Chi Minh's life and struggle, as well as various personal belongings.
