Vietnamese Mecque (Hanoi, Vietnam - 27/04)

Guards changing:
Ho Chi Minh is the symbol of freedom for Vietnamese.
By the time, he was organising Vietnam to fight against colonialist French
and occupant Japanese.
Now, his stuffed body is exposed in the guarded cubical building in the
picture.
No picture is allowed inside the building and it is impressive to see how
people get quiet once inside!!
Anecdote: the building is closed 2 months a year for the body to be
maintained in Russia...
