The Polish architect and conservator Kazimierz Kwiatkowski became director of the Polish-Vietnamese Monument Conservation Mission and was dispatched to the mine-infested country in the difficult post-war conditions. Here he helped restore My Son, Hoi An and Huế and thereby made an enormous contribution to Vietnamese culture and tourism – for which he’s remembered with this monument.

My favorite place in Vietnam. Unless you are out in Ha Long Bay. The street market is the best one I have been to in all of Asian. The lanterns covering the streets and in the trees .on the boats . It's a beautiful and romantic city .one of my favorite places.

The small sqaure in the middlemoff the old town dedicated to a Polish architect who helped preserve My Son (the holysee of the former Champa Kingdom - about 40km from Hoi An). Good place to have a rest or have some local foods served by hawker stalls

Wow. This square is dedicated to the man responsible for the delightful Hoi An we see today!

Nice to know about a Polish person

Nice relaxing square with a few benches. Great place to take a break and watch the world pass by.

Come here if you want to pay tribute to the man who did so much to help the town restore its glory days of the past and get famous!
