WAR MUSEUM , VIETNAM


This is a model of the viet-kong tunnel. To go to the place of this tunnel is a 3hr. drive.












Most of the trees in this area are new. The old ones died with the bombing and burning. This is one of the tunnels leading into other tunnels. As you can see from the model, there are levels , very well planed , if you happen to go down alone , you'll be lost without a guide.!








One of the traps, set up by the viet-kongs.
These are made of bamboo, because the viet-kongs had no other material, living in the jungle, with only trees and bamboo, this is the best they can do, sharpen bamboo spikes. Its a slow and painful death if not rescused in time.















This war musuem is a sad place, who is right or wrong, war is such an ugly affair! The death of thousands showed in photos is such a terrible thing to see.
