The park covers an area of 400m squared. In the center of the park is the monolithic sandstone statue of General Vo Nguyen Giap, 1.76m in height. About 300 photos about the General, Vietnam People’s Army and the well-known battles in the two resistance wars against French colonialism and American imperialism are printed on an arc-shaped wall within the park.
