    This is the musuem that attracts much interest of tourists,it's the most well-known one in HCMC.

    Here u can find many pics of Vietnam War agaisnt America,there are also pics of massacre that American troops did in Vietnam.they were all horifying scenes.

    a bit further u can find a prison which was imitated exactly like the one in Con Dao where was used to keep those who were considered as Viet Cong ,and many other creepy pics that will interest u

    At the entrance u will receive a brochure introducing briefly 'bout the musuem and u have to pay 10,000VND ($ 0.75) for the brochure as a entrance fee.

    Here u can take pics as many as u want without permission

    A museum dedicated to war artifacts. Formerly called the "War Crimes Museum". Its name was changed to the more politically correct "war remmants museum. It basically tells a one sided story of the war from the communists' perspective. The message is communist good, America bad. Still the old equipment is worth a look.

    The Museum was established in September 1975 in Ho Chi Minh City. It contains countless artifacts, photographs, and pictures documenting American war crimes.

    Such documents illustrate the killing of civilians, spreading of chemicals, torturing of prisoners, and the effects of the war on the north. Planes, tanks, bombs, and helicopters are also on display.

    Outside the museum are some rooms displaying cultural products of Vietnam.

    Inside the Museum there are displays of weaponry as well as instruments of torture which were used in particularly during the Vietnam War.

    The museum also has a mobile guillotine which was used by the French colonists before World War II to bring about justice throughout the country.

    Evident by a warplane and tank which sits out front, this compound belongs to the War Remnants Museum. You will find articles of war as well as photographs (very graphic in some cases). A lot of these photos as well as the message they portray spell out the effects of Agent Orange.. there are some very disturbing photos of bottled human fetuses and deformities caused by the chemical.

    It was very strange to go to the War Remnants Museum,because everything was seen through Vietnamese eyes. It's called the American War,and they're always referred to as the enemy. The pictures and the stories behind them are really something that makes you think. Nobody was nice in this war. War is not glorious.

    The War Remnants Museum which displays not only left over military hardware from the war, but also features an extensive photographic collection of the fight for independence, with a somewhat propagandistic overtone. Certainly it is worth a visit, as it will give you some insight to a lesser known perspective.

    • Visit the American War Crimes Museum.
    this museum, while filled with Commie propoganda, allows you to understand what it would be like to live under a communist regime and allows you to see how some people feel about the American efforts in Vietnam. The museum makes you feel for the pain and difficulties that most experienced during the long, drawn-out conflict, but even more interesting is the way in which the material is treated. If you have ever visited the Peace Museum in Hiroshima, you will be amazed at the different feel you get from this museum.
