An old flagpole stands between heaven and earth, bringing a very ancient beauty. I love it,but can't move up near the flagpole to check-in

This flag tower has been renovated several times since it was first constructed and can be seen from a distance. The tower and flagpole is about 55 m high where the Vietnamese flag proudly flutters...

We saw it the first on a perfume River cruise to the Thien Mu Pogoda. Then again when we visited the Citadel. It is the largest flagpole in Viet Nam, 120 feet. Originally erected in 1807, destroyed by a typhoon in 1904 , rebuilt to be destroyed again in 1947 and finally rebuilt in 1948.

A must take photo! Sunny afternoon is the best time for the photo. Many people exercising/running/kids playing in the evening
