- Cu Chi tunnels is now a popular and well-known for both Vietnamese & foreign tourists - the network of over 200km of tunnels became legendary when they played a vital role in the War.
- In their heyday, the tunnels were functioning underground cities including numerous trap doors, specially constructed living areas, storage facilities, weapons factories, field hospitals, command centers & kitchens.
- Today, ducks and water buffalos happily co-exist in the rivers along the side of the road. However, the peaceful rural rice paddy scenery belies the area’s violent history.
- Visitors will find it hard to imagine the destruction, damage & defoliation over this whole area, caused by bombing and mines.
- There is plenty of evidence of the fierce battle that took place here during the 1960s when Cu Chi was a "Free Target Zone".
