Vo Thi Sau Street is a long and crowded transport route of District 3

Vo Thi Sau Street is a busy thoroughfare in District 3, Ho Chi Minh City. Along with Cach Mang Thang Tam Street and Ton Duc Thang Street, it forms a square that encloses a vibrant residential and commercial area, which includes Ward 6, Da Kao Ward, and parts of District 1. The street begins at Le Loi refuge island and intersects with Nam Ky Khoi Nghia Street and Hai Ba Trung Street, while also angling towards Dinh Tien Hoang Street and Ton Duc Thang Street.


Vo Thi Sau is honored as a heroine of Vietnam’s past, emblematic of youthful courage and sacrifice. She became a symbol of resistance, notably for her actions during the French colonial period when, at the tender age of 18, she threw grenades, resulting in the death of one commando and injuring 20 French troops. This act of bravery occurred amidst her capture, leading to her execution. Vo Thi Sau is often associated with the blooming "lekima" flower, symbolizing both beauty and resilience, and represents the indomitable spirit of Vietnamese youths during the national revolution.


The Southern Women’s Museum, located at 202 Vo Thi Sau Street, Ward 7, District 3 of Ho Chi Minh City, showcases the vital contributions of southern Vietnamese women to national construction and defense. Spanning 2,000 square meters, the museum features ten exhibit rooms, a 500-seat meeting hall, a film theater, a library, and a gift shop. It serves as a hub for women’s cultural and educational activities, including traditional gatherings, scientific seminars, and cultural exchanges.
