Hoa Lo Prison Relic

interesting but very simple museum that had only a handful of exhibits. would recommend coming here but probably won’t need to spend more than 1 hour here. cost of entry is 30k VND

The situation at that time can be conveyed. Since it was done in northern Vietnam, there was a place to visit the grave inside.

A very interesting half-day trip, we walk around the prison, where you can learn about the years of American pilots being held here, but that's just a small part of the history of the prison. Built by the French in the late 1800s, this is where the French have committed many atrocities against the Vietnamese people, men and women, for a long time, and executed at the guillotine, one of which is on display. There is a lot of knowledge and historical materials to learn, as well as two incidents in which Vietnamese prisoners escaped from prison through sewers. Not everyone likes history, but it is difficult to stay in Vietnam without encountering the relationship with history. Some exhibits are very solemn and some descriptions are a bit exaggerated. It is always a Communist country, and half of the letter is enough.

It is a place where there is a painful story that deeply understands the dark history of Vietnam and reminds us of our Japanese colonial period.

1. In the old city, the area is not large; 2. There is a fixed tour route, you can not go back; 3. Visit content includes historical pictures, cultural relics, models, image materials, especially recommended to see more video materials, to better understand the truth, restore historical facts; 4. About an hour can be visited, ticket prices 30,000 shields.

Now it's a museum, a complete preservation of the former Hualu prison, which was ironically called Hilton Hanoi by American prisoners of war during the Vietnam War. The exhibits mainly show Vietnam's struggle against French independence. The exhibits have different tools of torture, including the guillotine used by French colonists to execute Vietnamese revolutionaries.
