Thousands of people have lined up in front of the Hanoi home of the late General Vo Nguyen Giap to pay their last respects.
Gen Giap, who masterminded victories against France and the US, died on 4 October, aged 102.
The Vietnamese government has announced plans to hold a national funeral for him next weekend, and Vietnamese media report he will be buried in his home province of Quang Binh on Sunday.
Watch scenes at his home as mourners weep, carry flowers and play the violin in tribute to Gen Giap, who was North Vietnam's defence minister at the time of the Tet Offensive against American forces in 1968.

Given unlimited North Viets' lives to waste, Giap never thought twice about throwing his fanatic compatriots times after times in harms' way to gain his status.
What a farce!

Jendhamuni, Please accept my condolences !!!
go to hell ah Giap. I, personally as khmer victim of the war which had been created by you and your communist regime to invade Cambodia, have no sympathy at all , you were an animal, barbarian dog, there is no good word for you. If I could I would pi pi and shit on your grave. Hell hell hell ah Hanoi.
People always blame other for it own problem, but never look at them self in the mirror.
~Gen Giap, who masterminded victo ries against Pol Pot, before the United Nation come to Cambodia in 1978 of December, but at time the Chinese pounded the North Viet Nam at Ha Noi, made them pulled back and then in January 1st the Viet Cong invaded Cambodia again this they got victory. However, they new that the West celebrated their Holidays in December 25th till January.... The Viet Cong took advantaged!

To some readers,
I understand your antagonism towards the general/Vietnam's expansionism ideology. However we have to have a decency to accept history by learning what's happening around us and be open minded with the current affairs that will strengthen our knowledge and thoughts.
Just a small suggestion though! hopefully you don't mind me saying this.
Mourning? But most people in the picture don’t look sad.
Laos and Cambodia are sending delegations to Vo Nguyen Giap funeral on Saturday
