Description and is it worth a visit
Ton Duc Thang Museum – dedicated to the second President of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and the first president of Socialist Vietnam – Ton Duc Thang. Against the background of other attractions of Ho Chi Minh City, it looks rather modest and is almost not visited by tourists because of its subject matter. Perhaps the most remarkable thing about this museum is that it is free.
The museum exhibits are closely related to the life and work of Ton Duc Thang. The museum has 6 exhibition halls, which contain information in Vietnamese and English, ranging from childhood memories to revolutionary activities and government.
We would not recommend purposefully visiting it, except if you pass by.

It's more like everything about Ho Chi Minh City transport and what to use here.
