3. Once in Vietnam, you must visit this spot. This is where guerilla warfare optimized and exemplified. You’ll learn the clever design of the tunnels and the strategic use of trap doors. Even with B-52 bombers dropping 30-ton loads of explosive, turning the jungle into a pockmarked moonscape, 30 thousand American troops failed to conquered the area! You’ll have a chance to crawl around a portion of the 121 km long, multiple-layered tunnel.

About Ho Chi Minh City

Ho-Chi-Minh-Stadt, noch oft Saigon genannt, ist Vietnams pulsierendes Handelszentrum mit französischen Kolonialbauten, Kriegsgeschichte und Streetfood.

Distrikt 1 vereint die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten in Gehweite: die rote Backstein-Kathedrale Notre-Dame, das elegante Hauptpostamt mit seiner gewölbten Halle, das koloniale Opernhaus und das verzierte Rathaus. Der Unabhängigkeitspalast bewahrt seine Räume so, wie sie am Kriegsende waren, und das Kriegsreste-Museum erzählt die Geschichte des Konflikts mit ernüchternder Direktheit.

Top-ranked sights in Ho Chi Minh City: Cu Chi Tunnels, Saigon Opera House (Opéra de Saïgon), Saigon Central Post Office.
