Originally built by the French in the late 19th century to detain Vietnamese political prisoners, the prison later gained international attention during the Vietnam War for housing captured U.S. pilots. Today, Hoa Lo stands as a museum, offering a powerful and haunting glimpse into the harsh realities of colonial rule and wartime imprisonment. Its preserved cells, relics, and exhibits serve as a stark reminder of the resilience and sacrifices of those who endured its walls.

About Hanoi

Hanoi, Vietnams Hauptstadt, vereint Seetempel, französische Kolonialboulevards und eine Altstadt, in der Streetfood und Roller jede Gasse füllen.

Die engen Gassen der Altstadt, von denen sich einst jede einem einzigen Gewerbe widmete, liegen gleich nördlich des Hoan-Kiem-Sees, wo die rote Huc-Brücke zum Tempel des Jadeberges führt. Man bummelt im Morgengrauen, um Tai-Chi am Wasser zu sehen, oder nach Einbruch der Dunkelheit, wenn sich die Bürgersteige mit Essensständen und niedrigen Plastikhockern füllen.

Top-ranked sights in Hanoi: Ha Long Bay, Hanoi Old Quarter, Long Bien Bridge (Cau Long Bien).
