Nong-on Historical Village

Nong-on Historical Village is where Ho Chi Minh lived in 1928. I think it is in Udon. Does anyone know the exact location?

If you go to Udon you will be 300 kms off the spot. The place you want is 5 kms outside Nakhon Phanom situated on the Mekong River. There are now 2 museums -- one the house and land where Ho lived and another in a new building 500 m behind. This was opened by Mr.Thaksin and members of the Viet. Government on an official visit a few years ago.

namkong,

You are refering to Ban Na jock. Nong-on is in either udon or nong khai. Ho Chi Minh lived and traveled all over Issan in 1928-29.

Apologies -- still, worth a visit if you are in the area of NKP

Nong On is not far from Udon at all. It is the village my house and farm are in. My house is a stones throw from Ho Chi Minhs boyhood home which still stands. Take the ring road to kut chap road. It is just a little past Chiang Pin and about halfway to Kut Chap. It is almost exactly 10 Kilometers from the ring road. For his home and Museum there is a small green sign in english and thai (which is easy to miss) at the sign take a left an it is a few hundred feet. I have walked over there several times and it has never been open. It is well taken care of but I have never seen anyone around there.
