There should be a 'Southern Land' museum.

That long journey created a strip of land on the rivers that was later called "Nine Dragons Land". From Gia Dinh citadel to Saigon and now Ho Chi Minh City, that "green" journey created the core of the Southern land. Now, it is very advisable to build in Ho Chi Minh City a common museum for the history of the whole South, and that museum should be called "Southern Land". That museum shows the history of expansion, creation, preservation, and fighting to protect every inch of land, until today, bringing Ho Chi Minh City and the South into a new era.

Recently, two Vietnamese cities entered the top 100 most attractive cities in the world , Ho Chi Minh City ranked 76th and Hanoi ranked 83rd. If we can build the "Southern Land" historical museum in Ho Chi Minh City, then surely, the city named after Uncle Ho will be even more attractive in the world's overall rankings.

Ho Chi Minh City currently has a war museum that attracts many tourists. If there is also a historical museum called "Dat Phuong Nam", this pair of museums will help tourists visualize the history of land opening and land preservation of the South and Ho Chi Minh City. Not only tourists, but students in Ho Chi Minh City and the South also need this museum as an open book, helping them learn history and be proud of the history of their homeland.

When there is a "Southern Land" museum, there should be galleries displaying works of art about this land, especially fine art works, including paintings and statues, along with historical and artistic photos. Because the "Southern Land" museum is highly comprehensive, the content displayed will be very rich, colorful, and attractive. It not only shows history, but importantly, it shows the character of the Southern migrants, the character of the Southern people today. Viewers will immediately read the beautiful similarities between the Southern migrants of the past and the Southern people, the people of Saigon today. It also explains why Ho Chi Minh City is now called "The City of Love", perhaps the most special title in the world for a city.

I hope that the leaders of Ho Chi Minh City will pay attention to this story, and even more so, that one day in the not too distant future, Ho Chi Minh City will have a museum named "Southern Land".
