Nghe An is the hometown of President Ho Chi Minh; Ho Chi Minh City is the largest city in the country, named after him. Over the years, the Party Committee, government and people of the two localities have had a close solidarity and affection. In particular, the Party Committee and people of Nghe An have always received enthusiastic and effective support from the Party Committee and people of Ho Chi Minh City in the cause of socio-economic development.

To express their infinite gratitude to beloved Uncle Ho and their deep affection for his homeland, the leaders of Ho Chi Minh City have researched, surveyed and found that the additional exhibition house at Kim Lien relic site was established in 1970. Up to now, it has been upgraded, adjusted and supplemented many times but still cannot fully meet the needs of visitors...thereby, they decided to choose and direct the implementation of the project to upgrade the additional exhibition house and the worship house at Kim Lien relic site.
