More than 40 book titles, newspapers and magazines about Việt Nam in Spanish language, covering a wide range of topics such as President Hồ Chí Minh, General Võ Nguyên Giáp, the resistance wars against foreign invaders and the struggle for national sovereignty. Especially, some books by Party leader Nguyễn Phú Trọng are also on display.
