To visit Ho Chi Minh Museum in HCMC, go to the old customs house in District 4, just across Ben Nghe Channel from the quayside end of Ham Nghi Street. Nicknamed the 'Dragon House' (Nha Rong), it was built in 1863. The tie between Ho Chi Minh and the museum building is tenuous: 21-year-old Ho Chi Minh, having signed on as a stoker and gallery boy on a French freighter, left Vietnam from here in 1911 and thus began 30 years of exile in France, the Soviet Union, China and elsewhere. The museum houses many of Ho Chi Minh's personal effects, including some of his clothing (he was a man of informal dress), sandals, his beloved US-made Zenith radio and other memorabilia.
