Along with the gallery, a number of items such as: digital museum about Uncle Ho, outdoor display spaces and reading culture space will be proposed to be adjusted and supplemented in planning to create more impressive highlights to attract more tourists to the square, further spreading Ho Chi Minh’s cultural values in his homeland.
