Hồ Chí Minh (1890–1969), was the founder and leader of the Communist Party of Vietnam and played a crucial role in Vietnam's struggle for independence from colonial rule. He served as President of North Vietnam from 1945 until his death in 1969.
The embalmed body of Ho Chi Minh is kept in a glass case in the central hall of the mausoleum, and visitors can walk past the body and pay their last respects.
