The time-worn artifacts in the thatched house in my grandmother's hometown evoked in each person their own feelings about Uncle Ho's childhood years. Ms. Nguyen Thi Nga (62 years old), from Gia Dong commune, Thuan Thanh district, Bac Ninh province, shared: "Today, I went with a group of 30 people from Bac Ninh to Quang Binh to visit the tomb of General Vo Nguyen Giap and to Nghe An to visit Uncle Ho's hometown.
