Overview

Situated about 70 km northwest of Ho Chi Minh City, the Cu Chi Tunnels represent a remarkable feat of ingenuity and resilience by the Cu Chi people and soldiers during their 30-year struggle for independence and national freedom. The tunnels, which played a significant role in Vietnam’s heroic 20th-century struggle, have gained worldwide recognition as a legendary symbol of resistance.
This extraordinary network of tunnels, stretching 250 km and resembling an underground spider’s web, includes various facilities such as trenches, docks, combat zones, areas for eating, sleeping, meetings, military operations, food storage, water wells, and Hoang Cam stoves.
