The Consulate General of France in Ho Chi Minh city has opened to the public as part of the 35th European Heritage Days.

On that day, French Consulate General to Ho Chi Minh city Vincent Floreani directly instructed visitors and introduced the nearly 150-year-old French architectural villa.

The villa was built in 1872 by French naval engineers on an area of 1.5 hectares. It was a typical example of Indochina architecture in the 19th century.

Not only the unique architecture, the history of the work makes many people want to discover.
The villa has been carefully preserved.

The living room can accommodate about 100 people at the same time.

In the living room, there are many famous paintings of Vietnam.
