Ho Chi Minh City Hall, officially called the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee Head Office (Trụ sở Ủy ban Nhân dân Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh), is the city hall of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

History

The hall was built in 1902–1908 in a French colonial style by architect Paul Gardès. Since communist conquered Saigon in 1975, the building has housed the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee, Ho Chi Minh City People's Council and Ho Chi Minh City People's Court, respectively.

The building is popular for its photo opportunities. Tourists can take photographs outside and many people choose to do this at night when the building and its milieu are lit up. On the days of April 29 and 30, 2023 (celebration of Reunification Day in Vietnam), the building was opened to public for the first time.^[1]
