According to the Hanoi Management Board of Relics and Scenic Sites, the relics are being reorganized and supplemented with additional artifacts and documents to better serve visitors. Among them, the 48 Hang Ngang relic continues to receive pre-registered tour groups, while the national relic "House Where President Ho Chi Minh Lived and Worked in December 1946" remains open daily to welcome the public and tourists. Many new documents and artifacts have been added, helping visitors better understand President Ho Chi Minh's revolutionary activities.

At the Hoa Lo Prison relic, activities commemorating the 135th birthday of President Ho Chi Minh have been strengthened through promotional efforts.

In addition, the site continues to organize the exhibition "Melody of Peace," featuring many documents and artifacts from the resistance against the United States, the liberation of the South, and the reunification of the country.
