The Exhibition Area was built by the French colonial government in 1899 - 1902 on Gambetta Avenue (now Tran Hung Dao Street), as an exhibition and fair venue displaying products from Vietnam, France and many countries around the world. Later, this location was used as the French Museum of Agriculture, Commerce and Industry, the Japanese military barracks, the People's Theater and converted into the Vietnam - Soviet Union Friendship Labor Cultural Palace.

House No. 90 Jean Soler Street (now Tho Nhuom Street) is the workplace of the Provisional Party Central Committee, where comrade Tran Phu wrote the draft of the Party's Political Platform in 1930. This is currently the place to display documents and artifacts related to comrade Tran Phu and is the headquarters of the Hanoi Monuments and Landscapes Management Board.

House number 5D Doudart de Lagrée Avenue (now Ham Long Street) is where the first Communist Party cell in Vietnam was established in March 1929. Currently, this is a place to display documents and artifacts associated with the birth of the first Communist Party cell.

Visitors explore the exhibition space at Hoa Lo Prison.

The Tonkin Palace was formerly the Governor's Palace of Tonkin built by the French colonial government. After the coup against the French colonial government (March 9, 1945), the Japanese fascists changed its name to the Imperial Envoy's Palace of Tonkin. On August 20, 1945, the building was renamed the Tonkin Palace, the residence and workplace of President Ho Chi Minh, now the Government Guest House.

The design of the exhibition “A glimpse of heritage” has a harmonious combination of two main colors: blue and yellow. Blue symbolizes the present, hope, creativity; yellow symbolizes the past, history. The exhibition space is designed with soft, curving details, creating the image of a heritage road.

The exhibition "A Glimpse of Heritage" runs until September 15.
