Part two of my tips with more pictures of the souvenir shops around the Cu Chi Tunnel Area
There is a number of souvenir shops around the cu chi area that sells everything from rubber sandals to local crafts made from bullets and scrap metal from the thousands of unexploded ordinance hanging around the area. plus other assorted kitschy items like snake wines, cobra tosin cream, assorted vietnamese handicrafts, silk products, t-shirts, caps and more. prices are fixed so that you cannot haggle on the products and they are generally more expensive here since this is a them park after all! the only difference is that this is a war theme park instead of a family entertainment park like disneyland.
What to buy: assorted souvenir items that you can think of.
What to pay: ot a dent on your wallet

Helpfulness
This souvenirshop is at the exit of the Cu Chi-tunnel-museum, next to a restaurant and the washrooms.
What to buy: My favorite souvenirs were the airplanes made of beercans and the small rikshas, but they also had exotic butterflies, woodcarvings,souvenirs of Ho Chi Min and emblems of the Vietcong etc.
What to pay: Prices were really cheap, as almost everything in Vietnam.
