Morning, take a half-day tour to the Cu Chi Tunnels, 75 km Northwest of downtown Ho Chi Minh City, which were once a major underground hideout and resistance base of Viet Cong forces during the two wars against the French and later on Americans. The tunnels, entirely hand-dug, formed a highly intricate network of interlinked multilevel passageways at times stretched as far as the Cambodian border and totaling over 120 km in length. Its complexity was beyond imagination containing meeting rooms, kitchens,
wells, clinics, schools, depots, trenches and emergency exits all aimed for guerrilla warfare. The tunnels
were deep and strong enough to withstand destructive bombings and self-contained enough to outlast
prolonged sieges. Back to Ho Chi Minh City and spend time at leisure.
