According to historical documents, after the success of the August Revolution, on August 29, 1945, Kien Trung Palace became a witness to the event where King Bao Dai had his first contact with the Provisional Government Delegation to officially discuss his abdication, handing over the power to run the country to the Provisional Revolutionary Government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam.
