Upon your arrival, the introductory video will give you an overall understanding of how this tunnel network was formed and how Vietnamese people could survive here in such severe conditions during the Vietnam war.

Although the US army had put in a lot of effort, they were not successful in bringing down the system completely since it was protected with a lot of hidden traps, counterfeit bunkers and booby traps.
