Before entering the allotted areas of Cu Chi Tunnels, watch an introductory video that overviews the tunnel system’s history and Vietnamese life during a hard time of war. Climb down small tunnels to get unique experiences and blow your mind when specially constructed living areas and martial facilities of the Viet Cong appear in front of your eyes. It will be great to know the system of tunnels – an underground village with bedrooms, kitchens, field hospitals, command centers, weapons factories, and storage.
