This riverfront museum traces the life of Ho Chi Minh from his humble beginnings to his death in 1969, with displays of objects from his life. Some exhibits relate to the history of Phan Thiet and there are also some preserved specimens of local wildlife and large squid. The museum was built in 1986 on the site of Ho Chi Minh's former home, when he was a teacher at the Duc Thang School across the road.

About 40 km (25 miles) west of Quy Nhon, the Quang Trung Museum is dedicated to Emperor Quang Trung, one of the leaders of the Tay Son Rebellion, which began in 1772 as a peasant uprising and eventually led to the temporary overthrow of the Nguyen rulers in Hanoi. The museum has limited signage in English and is only really of interest to committed historians, given its out-of-the-way location.
