Reunification Palace

The palace was rebuilt in 1966 after the previous one was bombed, and it has stayed exactly as it was on 30 April 1975, when North Vietnamese tank 843 drove through its gates — the image that closed the war. Both tanks are on the lawn.

Inside is an intact 1960s interior: reception rooms, the presidential office, a cinema. The basement is more interesting than the upper floors: a command bunker with its wall maps, period radios and concrete corridors.
