The Tonkin Palace, now the Government Guest House, is a two-story house at 12 Ngo Quyen Street, Trang Tien Ward, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi. This used to be the headquarters of the Tonkin government, and is a historical relic of Vietnam.

History
During the French colonial period, this building was the Palace of the North Vietnamese Ambassador.

After the Japanese coup d'etat against France (March 9, 1945), the building was changed to Phu Kham sai Tonkin.

During the August Revolution, the day of the general uprising in Hanoi (August 19, 1945), Viet Minh forces and Hanoi people attacked and occupied this building.

After the August Revolution in 1945, President Ho Chi Minh and the Provisional Government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam returned to work here until the National Resistance Day.[1] During this time, the building was renamed Bac Bo Phu.

At the beginning of the National Resistance, on December 20, 1946, a battle broke out here between a company of the National Guard defending the Tonkin government and the French with tanks supporting them. This was the fiercest and longest battle in the early days of the Indochina War. After 6 waves of attacks were repelled, 122 casualties of legionnaires, losses of 4 tanks and armor, 3 trucks, the assault force captured the building. The number of soldiers of the National Guard died in battle was 45 people.[2]

At the end of the Indochina War (1954), the Tonkin Palace was remodeled and became the Government Guest House.

In 2005, the North was covered with a signboard of revolutionary historical relic.

VIỆN ĐẠI HỌC ĐÔNG DƯƠNG ♦︎ Năm xưa: Viện Đại học Đông Dương ♦︎ Ngày này: Khoa Hóa Học - Trường Đại học khoa học tự nhiên Hà Nội (https://www.chemvnu.edu.vn) ♦︎ Địa chỉ: Số 19 phố Lê Thánh Tông, Q. Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội Tác phẩm đầu tiên theo phong cách Kiến trúc Đông Dương được xây dựng ở Hà Nội do kiến trúc sư E.Hébrard thiết kế năm 1924 là Toà nhà chính của khu Đại học Đông Dương đã hình thành trước đó. Toạ lạc tại vị trí án ngữ một đại lộ lớn lúc bấy giờ – Boulevard Carreau (phố Lý Thường Kiệt ngày nay), xế phía trước lại có một vườn hoa nhỏ, công trình đã tạo ra một điểm nhấn đô thị nổi bật. Theo thiết kế ban đầu thì đây là một công trình mang phong cách Tân cổ điển với cấu trúc hình khối kiến trúc đăng đối hoàn toàn, mặt bằng không gian theo kiểu chính thống, nhấn mạnh khối sảnh trung tâm, hai phía là giảng đường lớn và thư viện được bố trí trên hai tầng nhà. Tuy nhiên trong quá trình xây dựng, Hébrard đã thay đổi hầu như hoàn toàn hình thức mặt đứng công trình bằng cách đưa vào khá nhiều thành phần kiến trúc Á Đông. Điểm nhấn cho khối trung tâm là bộ mái ngói nhiều lớp theo hình thức bát giác, giữa các lớp mái là các cửa nhỏ trang trí hoa văn bên cạnh hàng con sơn đỡ mái theo kiểu Trung Hoa cổ. Bộ mái ngói còn được sử dụng như một hình thức kết thúc phương đứng ở hai cánh nhà, ở tiền sảnh phía sau nhà. Các cửa sổ cũng được che bởi các ô văng chéo dán ngói. Hệ thống cửa của công trình cũng được kiến trúc sư – tác giả hết sức lưu tâm. Cửa ra vào chính là một cửa dạng vòm có độ cao tương đương hai tầng nhà được trang trí bằng kính và kim loại theo phong cách Art Nouveau, không chỉ làm đẹp cho công trình khi nhìn từ ngoài vào mà làm tăng tính thẩm mỹ cho khu đại sảnh khi nhìn từ trong ra. Các cửa sổ mở rộng kiểu cuốn vòm ở tầng 1 được nhóm thành hai cửa sổ hình chữ nhật ở tầng 2 cùng các cửa nhỏ trên mái sảnh tạo ra sự biến hoá nhưng vẫn mang tính thống nhất cao. Các họa tiết trang trí Á Đông được sử dụng rộng rãi, mặt tiền tòa nhà được trang trí bởi các hình hoa văn chữ triện, hình bát giác rất phổ biến trong kiến trúc đình chùa Việt cổ, các hình này còn được nhắc lại trên các diềm mái càng làm tôn nổi tính bản địa của công trình. Nhắc tới Đại học Đông Dương thì chúng ta không thể bỏ qua phần nội thất của công trình. Nếu mặt ngoài toà nhà mang dáng vẻ Á Đông thì phần nội thất lại chủ yếu theo tinh thần kinh viện Châu Âu. Chính sảnh được phủ bởi một bộ vòm hai lớp với các hàng cột, các hoạ tiết trang trí kiểu Tân cổ điển. Các không gian lớn và thoáng đãng đặc trưng của các đại học lớn ở Pháp thời bấy giờ. Đặc biệt là trong giảng đường chính có bức tranh tường lớn nhất Việt Nam do hoạ sĩ Victor Tardieu thực hiện, mô tả cuộc sống của người Hà Nội đầu thế kỷ 20 với sự hiện diện của 200 nhân vật đại diện cho xã hội thời bấy giờ. Công trình Đại học Đông Dương có thể được coi là thử nghiệm đầu tiên của E. Hébrard theo phong cách kết hợp nên còn thiếu sự ăn nhập giữa nội – ngoại thất công trình. Tuy nhiên với hình khối được tổ chức chuẩn mực theo tinh thần cổ điển kết hợp với các hình thức trang trí mặt đứng theo tinh thần Á Đông, toà nhà chính Đại học Đông Dương có thể coi là công trình tiên phong của trường phái Kiến trúc Đông Dương, một sự kết hợp thành công bước đầu giữa kiến trúc nói riêng và văn hoá Phương Đông và Phương Tây nói chung ở Hà Nội

♦︎ In the past: Indochina University Institute
♦︎ This day: Department of Chemistry - Hanoi University of Science (https://www.chemvnu.edu.vn)
♦︎ Address: No. 19 Le Thanh Tong Street, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi
The first work in the style of Indochina Architecture built in Hanoi by architect E.Hébrard designed in 1924 is the main building of the Indochina University area that was formed earlier. Located at the location of a large boulevard at that time - Boulevard Carreau (today's Ly Thuong Kiet Street), there was a small flower garden in the front, creating a prominent urban highlight.
According to the original design, this is a neoclassical building with a completely opposite architectural block structure, orthodox space plan, emphasizing the central lobby block, the two sides are the lecture hall. large and the library is arranged on two floors.
However, during the construction process, Hébrard changed almost completely the form of the facade by introducing many Asian architectural components.
The highlight for the central block is a set of multi-layer tiled roofs in the form of an octagon, between the layers of roofs are small decorative doors next to rows of painted roof supports in the ancient Chinese style. The tile roof set is also used as a vertical finish on the two wings, in the foyer behind the house. The windows are also covered by tiled diagonal slats.
The door system of the building is also paid great attention by the architect - author. The main entrance door is an arched door with a height equivalent to two floors decorated with glass and metal in the Art Nouveau style, which not only beautifies the building when viewed from the outside but also increases the aesthetics of the building. lobby area when viewed from the inside out.

The arched expansion windows on the 1st floor are grouped into two rectangular windows on the 2nd floor and the small doors on the roof of the lobby create a variation but still have a high degree of unity.
Oriental decorative motifs are widely used, the facade of the building is decorated with seal and octagonal patterns that are very common in the architecture of ancient Vietnamese temples and pagodas, these shapes are also repeated on The roof frills accentuate the locality of the building.

Referring to Indochina University, we cannot ignore the interior of the building. If the outside of the building has an Asian look, the interior is mainly in the spirit of the European academy. The main hall is covered by a set of double-layered arches with columns, neoclassical motifs.
The large and airy spaces were typical of the great universities in France at that time. Especially in the main lecture hall, there is the largest mural in Vietnam by painter Victor Tardieu, depicting the life of Hanoians in the early 20th century with the presence of 200 characters representing the society at that time. hour.
The Indochina University project can be considered as E. Hébrard's first experiment in a combined style, so there is still a lack of compatibility between the interior and the exterior of the building.

However, with the standard organized block in the classical spirit combined with the decorative forms of the facade in the spirit of East Asia, the main building of Indochina University can be considered as a pioneer work of the School of Architecture. Indochina architecture, an initial successful combination between architecture in particular and Eastern and Western culture in general in Hanoi

Originally, according to historical records, when King Ly Thai To moved the capital to Thang Long, he named the temple Ngoc Tuong Son, in the Tran dynasty renamed it Ngoc Son. During the Tran Dynasty, the temple was dedicated to the heroes and martyrs who died in the resistance war against the Mongols. After a long time that temple collapsed.

In the Vinh Huu period of the Le Dynasty (1735-1739), Lord Trinh Giang built Thuy Khanh palace and built two earthen mountains on the east bank opposite Ngoc Son called Dao Tai and Ngoc Boi mountains. At the end of the Le Dynasty, Thuy Khanh Palace was destroyed by Le Chieu Thong. A philanthropist named Tin Trai, on the basis of the old palace, founded a temple called Ngoc Son Pagoda. The inscription on the Chinese stele Ngoc Son De Quan from the signature, composed by Dr. Vu Tong Phan in 1843, also records this event as follows: "... Ta Vong Lake, formerly known as Hoan Kiem Lake, is a scenic spot of Kinh land. In the north of the lake, a mound of earth emerged about three to four sao wide, it is said to be the place of a fishing station in the late Le period. more called Ngoc Son Pagoda..."
