The Vinh Moc Tunnels
Please click images for slideshow
The tunnels of Vinh Moc were dug not for warfare, but for the purpose of getting away from shelling and bombing as the village was a staging point for delivery of military supplies to the island of Con Co just outside the coast. The museum as such has develoepd significantly over the years to where it now have some very interesting information and items on display.
The tunnels as such are open to go down in. It is a very interesting experience to see how people lived and went about their lives during those years. Make sure to follow the signs as it is easy to get lost in the mace of tunnels.

How to get there
Located just north of the DMZ in the Quang Tri province, the tunnels are often included in DMZ tours going from Hue. Or it’s a nice stop on the way for those who are travling along the QL1 going either direction.
