The Museum of thematic research, collection , storage, preservation and display of the material, photographs, artifacts on the evidence of the crime and the consequences of the war that the invasion force has caused to Vietnam. Well, I personally don't recommend this for kids due to some horrific photos but with the guidance of the parents it's probably fine.

Walking back to the History

The War Remnants Museum has been one of my favourites when I fly to the Ho Chi Minh City. The museum requires an admission fee of 15,000 vnd which is less than a dollar. The museum closes around 5pm. Be sure to reach here earlier. You can take a taxi from ben thanh market here at few bucks. From the entrance of the museum, there are few fire fighter planes and tanks that have been used between the war in the past. A walk up to the museum will bring you back to the 70s where the war happens. You can see the real life images of the sufferings and the bad living conditions of the people living in that era. You will definitely feel the pain and empathy. We must treasure what we have today and work hard for it. We will definitely make the world a peaceful place to live in. #bucketlistreboot

War Remnants Museum - Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam

This museum invites Western tourists to look at the Vietnam War from a different angle - they will learn here something different from what they are used to seeing and hearing. The Museum was opened in 1975 and was originally called the Museum of the History of American War Crimes. The museum received its current name in 1995 after relations between the United States and Vietnam normalized. Most of the exhibits are related to the events of the Vietnam War, but there are also those that relate to the period of the struggle of the Vietnamese people against the French colonialists. The museum courtyard is filled with various types of captured military equipment, including American artillery pieces, armored vehicles and infantry weapons. Address: War Remnants Museum, Võ Văn Tần, Ward 6, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. #bucketlistreboot #vietnam #museumquest

War museum

It is an impressive place, not for the faints of heart as some pictures can be shocking. To me it was learning history from the other side of the story. Definitely a must see place, they have an audio guide for rent at a reasonable price and a supervised kids area in case you are visiting with children. The exhibit areas inside the building have A/C, it is very hot outside, bringing water is highly recommended. Tiger Cages outside the main building + the area that explains them as well as torture techniques used during the war was hard to see. There is a parking for motorbikes as you enter the building, and a small cafeteria that sells ice cream, water and soft drinks

At the War Remnants Museum during our Vietnam Trip last September 2017 that narrates the atrocities from war in Vietnam in the 60’s. It is just a shocking reminder of the long and brutal Vietnam War. Graphic photographs and American military equipment are on display. #happynewyear

I usually like to share places where I had fun, but this time it is different. The War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi Minh is a small museum with 3 floors which resembles the information about the American and Vietnamese war. The pictures, stories, and consequences to which you indulge and start the feeling the atmosphere of that time make you cry. It is definitely worth visiting to once again remind yourself that peace and kindness are the things humans need the most.

Getting to Know Vietnam 🇻🇳

Interesting museum in Ho Chi Minh

#hochiminhcity Very insightful and melancholy. So much information and artefacts about the events and effects of the war. It really puts a lot into perspective, there are some photos that are pretty graphic.. however, you have to remember this was part of the war, what they went through, this was part of their life. War isn't what you see in the movies, and this really gives you a reality check of the circumstances and trauma during and after this time. Although, hard hitting - it was really interesting and informative.

War Remnants Museum

#hochiminhcity You can know what people went through during the war time. The real life stories of people here will remain in our memories. Spend time to read through them. A dedicated section for agent orange and weapons that have been used during the vietnam war don't miss these. Lots of information, I believe the ticket was 40k on entry. It’s a reasonable price and there is a lot to see. Brilliant to get to know the history of the war in Vietnam.

War Remnants Museum

#hochiminhcity Had a great day at the war museum learning about the Vietnam war. Despite not having an audio guide with me, I don't think I needed one in the end as the information provided was very informative. Lots of things to see from the pics provided. I will say it's not for the faint of heart as some of the stories and pictures are quite gut wrenching but definitely worth hearing about. Tickets were very cheap to enter at only 40,000 dong (about £1.25). 10/10!

A visit to War Remnants Museum, HCMC Vietnam

The museum was founded as documentation of war between Vietnam and The United States (1960-1975). Many disturbing pics as the proof of the history, war caused nothing but misery, especially to innocent women and kids. The horrible chemical agent used by The US army to Vietnam called agent orange/dioxin which was very harmful and toxic for every living creatures. And suddenly I heard the song by Jason DeRulo, "make love not war" playing in my head... #vietnamtrip #hochiminhcity #warremnantsmuseum #saigon #makelovenotwar

Must see Museum in Saigon

Though war is very bad, this is definitely an eye-opener for you, history, and non history buffs. One thing I love about the museum is the artifacts they have. You have to keep an open mind if your a Westerner. I know it was a political game where a lot of innocent lives were lost during this War. #peace #love #vietnam

🕊️ Educational Visit to War Remnants Museum

#wecreate 📍 War Remnants Museum Ho Chi Minh, Phường 6, District 3, Ho Chi Minh City 700000, Vietnam. 💲VND 40,000 ☮️ The museum is spread across a 3 storey building. When you enter, there are displays of tanks & planes at the Ground Floor courtyard. The collection of artifacts were excellent, incredibly displaying how brutal the war was. Photography section is an eye opener, but not for the faint of heart. 👍 It's a great place to learn about past history. Be prepared to see a very detailed, informative and sad recollection of the war. #hochiminhcity #warremnantsmuseum #vietnam

A graphic and harrowing glimpse at the War

definitely worth a visit if you’re interested in history, but not for those who are easily upset. 40,000 for entry and you can do the whole museum in around 1/2 hours depending on how much you want to read. the agent orange and war crimes section are particularly interesting to understand the scale of what the Americans did, annihilation on a scale I still can’t really comprehend.

War Remnants Museum

A beautiful history of a beautiful people! The museum is unique! It is possible to see the power of the vietnamese people! Vietnam is one of the most interesting place in the world! #forevergrateful

War Remnants Museum War museum in Ho Chi Minh City. was a eye opener and a very informative museum. I now realise the pain and sufferings Vietnamese people had to go through and have a very big admiration for them now

This is a place that tore my heart to pieces. War Remnants Museum is true to its name. They showcased tankers, bullets, revolutionary pamphlets, heartbreaking photographs, and narrations of everything relating to the Vietnam War and the First Indochina War. Seeing those photographs was the saddest parts. Seeing the faces of the actual victims in those wars, lying dead, with their eyes open. It was absolutely eye opening and heartbreaking. #wintergetaway

This was a really enlightening and moving experience. I thought I knew quite a bit about the war, but this museum really brings home how torn apart the country was. The continuing impact of the use of Agent Orange really shocked. The museum puts a context around the conflict and though moving and informative it is also very insightful. #wintergetaway #wintergetaway
