(VOVworld) – Over 1,000 people visited the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum on the first day of the New Year. Le Thi Ngan from Ha Nam province visited the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum with her relatives and friends: “We visit Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum on New Year holiday. We take the children to meet Uncle Ho, who they have only seen on TV.”

Nguyen Van Sang, who came from Nam Dinh, said he has been working in Hanoi for two years but has no time to visit the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. He spends one day of the New Year holiday to pay pilgrimage to Uncle Ho before returning to his home village. “Uncle Ho lives forever in the heart of Vietnamese people. This is the place I always want to visit. Uncle Ho will give me more encouragement to work in the New Year.”
