Ticket prices for the Independence Palace in Ho Chi Minh City

Ticket type / service	Cost (Vietnamese dong)
Adult ticket (main palace only)	40,000 dong
Child ticket (main palace only)	10,000 dong
Comprehensive ticket (main palace + Norodom Palace)	65,000 dong (adult)
Comprehensive child ticket	15,000 dong
Audio guide rental (including in Russian)	90,000 dong

A regular ticket to the main palace (40,000 dong) is more than enough for a first visit. The comprehensive ticket also includes entry to the museum of the old Norodom Palace, which is more interesting for those deeply interested in Vietnamese history. The audio guide in Russian costs almost as much as two adult tickets, but it's worth it if you want to learn the history of each hall and exhibit in detail, rather than just looking at the interiors.

The ticket office closes at 3:30 PM, although the palace itself is open until 4:30 PM. Keep this in mind when planning your visit. Sometimes the palace may be closed for government events, so it's better to check the information on the official website.
