Phu Quoc Island Prison, remembering history and not forgetting the past In the Vietnam War, Phu Quoc Island was once the place where the South Vietnamese regime specifically held North Vietnamese and Vietnamese prisoners. The notorious Prudential Prison has held more than 40,000 prisoners. The prison has been rebuilt. The museum is for future generations to visit. There are many life-like models in the prison to show you the life situation and the type of torture of the prisoners. It is really a immersive feeling in the country. It is a cultural attraction worthy of a visit on Phu Quoc Island. Here you can feel the cruelty of war. Visitors can go back to the route of prisoners who escaped from prison. The feeling of leaving the tunnel is really to regain freedom. The concentration camp surrounded by three-layer barbed wire consists of a simple, iron house about half a meter high from the ground. Follow the passage in the barbed wire and pass through the gate to enter the concentration camp. The statues in each barracks tell you the past in the past. For prisoners of war, how to escape from here, from freedom is the hope of continuing to live. The Vietnamese recreated the horror of the Shura hell at the time with some sculptures that were not so lifelike. The prisoners who were abused by various means were still shocking. Humiliation and resistance to rebirth are the two most emphasized themes here. It can't be said that it is suitable for everyone to visit, especially those who want to come to Phu Quoc Island for a relaxing holiday. But the scars of history are indelible, and only pray for peace in the world. Today's Phu Quoc Island has become a seaside holiday paradise, hoping that the tragedy of the past will never repeat itself.
