The relic site, located at No. 89-91 on Hua Shan Nan street in Kunming, was where Nguyen Ai Quoc, who later became President Ho Chi Minh, lived and worked from February to October, 1940. There, he met several Vietnamese revolutionists, including Pham Van Dong and Vo Nguyen Giap, to discuss important events of the Vietnamese revolution.
The house was recognised as a cultural relic site protected at the municipal level in 2011, and at the provincial level in 2019. It was renovated in 2022.
A lot of photos and documents of President Ho Chi Minh during his stay in the city are being displayed at the relic site.
Writing in the guestbook, Chairman Hue expressed his thanks for the Party organizations, authorities and people of Yunnan in general and Kunming in particular for maintaining and repairing the relic site, which he described as a vivid demonstration of the Vietnam - China relations.
