Another Perspective

We visit the Cu Chi Tunnels just outside of Ho Chi Minh City that the Vietnamese built during wartimes. It is a well protected underground city with a complicated web of passageways, meeting rooms, kitchens, dining areas, hospitals, and camouflaged entrances and breathing holes. We are regaled with story after story of their wit, determination, and deception in order to hide and survive. We visit the War Remnants Museum, a heartbreaking but defiant memorial to the costly Vietnam War.
