This highly unusual temple is dedicated to the late president Ho Chi Minh and contains a shrine to Uncle Ho as well as a small museum displaying photos of his life. The little rattan-roofed shrine (now enclosed in a round concrete building) was built in 1971, while the war was still raging – testimony to Communist support in large swathes of the Mekong. There’s a US helicopter, jeep and 105mm gun in the park-like grounds, along with some giant pythons in cages. The temple is in Long Duc commune, 5km north of Tra Vinh town.
