Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum is the final resting place of Vietnamese Revolutionary leader Ho Chi Minh. Located in the middle of Ba Dinh Square in Hanoi, the grey granite exterior contrast with the gardens surrounding the mausoleum, where almost 250 species of plants and flowers from different regions of Vietnam grow.

Protected by a military honor guard, the embalmed body of Ho Chi Minh is preserved in a glass case in the vaults's black and red stone interior. Visitors, walking in two lines, pay their respects daily. Proper decorum is strictly enforced by staff and guards: visitors must be silent, legs must be covered, hands are not allowed in pockets, nor arms crossed. Smoking, drinking, eating, photography and videotaping are also not permitted inside the mausoleum. - AsNotedIn
