The town of Cu Chi is a district of greater HCMC and has a population of about 200,000 (it had about 80,000 residents during the American War). At first glance there is little evidence here to indicate the intense fighting, bombing and destruction that occurred in Cu Chi during the war. To see what went on, you have to dig deeper – underground. To our tour, we will give you much knowledge about history of Vietnamese peope in war. You will have an opportunity to discover tunnels underground and much more understand life these days.
