37 years ago, five directions of attack of the southern Vietnam liberation army attacked the last den of the Saigon regime to liberate the south, and re-unify the country.

The Spring 1975 general offensive, with the Ho Chi Minh campaign as the peak, liberated southern Vietnam, successfully closing the war of resistance against the US. This is the theme of an ongoing photo exhibition at the Lam Son Park in District 1, HCM City.
