Ho Chi Minh City Hall
Ho Chi Minh City Hall was built by the French in 1898–1909 as the Hôtel de Ville of Saigon and faces Nguyễn Huệ Boulevard with a clock tower and an ornate façade inspired by the Paris town hall. It is the seat of the city's People's Committee and People's Council; visitors see it from the boulevard, as the interior opens only on occasional public days.
