War Remnants Museum, Ho Chi Minh City

Impressive, must see. It's the Vietnamese view of the war, but it gives a good idea of the cruelty of this war. It's big and if you want to see everything it takes time. There is a gallery of pictures from American photographers that have died in the war. Very impressive and extensive also. (Lesser pictures would have been sufficient too, it's a bit too much in the whole of the exhibition.)

Powerful display affecting those who visit. Graphic and quite hard hitting. The Requiem exhibition - a collection of photos from war correspondents - is superb. Takes a good half day. Most of us needed a time out. Highly informative.

War destroys peace, humanity. Why we can't live in peace? Live and let live. Life is beautiful n precious. Say no to war

We had the best tour guide today in Ruby (Ngoc) hearing her proudly share all about this once capitol city of Vietnam. Both Moving and Captivating we applaud the governments commitment to rebuild each palace to its stunning original state. We advise you invest in the carts to both save time and avoid being in the heat. The Temple where all 13 kings lives are told and the Opera House is amazing. Evening performances held 🎶 Also get to the Gecko Restaurant if you can - in fact that entire food scene is excellent. So glad we put 'Hue' on our travel plans ! A Must see for your trip ✔ Cheers Leisa & Scott from Australia

For me this place is a must go to place for Vietnam. This place offers history, good pictures, as well as a very important lesson. The museum shows how the the war started and how the United States interfered with the war. It also showed the atrocities done by the U.S. against Vietnam during the Vietnam war. It really gives a good perspective about the realities of war and what happens after the defeat of a nation. Aside from the serious tone of the museum, you can also take pictures of tanks and other military vessels used during the war.
