The Presidential Palace relic site always welcomes a large number of tourists during the historic months of August and September.
One of the red addresses of the August Revolution is the house at 48 Hang Ngang Street, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi. After returning to Hanoi from the Viet Bac resistance base, on August 25, 1945, President Ho Chi Minh wrote the Declaration of Independence here. Then, the Declaration of Independence was solemnly declared by him before more than 500,000 people in the capital and the world on September 2, 1945 at the historic Ba Dinh Square. To respond to the people's respect and gratitude for Uncle Ho, in 1970, the house at 48 Hang Ngang was restored as a Memorial House. In 1979, it was ranked as a National Historical and Cultural Relic by the Ministry of Culture and Information (now the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism) under Decision No. 54/QD-VH dated April 29, 1979.

Another historical site is the Hanoi Flag Tower, at 28 Dien Bien Phu (Ba Dinh - Hanoi). This is a "historical witness" of the Capital about the resilience and indomitability of the Capital's people during the glorious resistance war against the French. In 1945, after the success of the August Revolution, the red flag with a yellow star was flown for the first time on top of the Hanoi Flag Tower. In 1954, the resistance war against the French colonialists was completely victorious, and the national flag once again flew in the sky of Hanoi.
August Revolution Square still retains its historical and cultural value.
Hanoi Opera House, Hoan Kiem District - where important historical events took place associated with the August Revolution and the early years of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam.

On September 2, 1946, a rally was held here to celebrate the first anniversary of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam government, which was also the day Uncle Ho first came to the Square, entering the Hanoi Opera House. Until 1994, this place was officially named August Revolution Square. On the journey through the revolutionary relics, Long Bien Bridge is a "historical witness" of Hanoi.
