Tunnels built to house families after the village was destroyed by American bombing in June 1965.

In June 1965, the village of Vinh Môc was totally destroyed by American bombing. In order to survive, the inhabitants had to build a system of tunnels to shelter 82 families (300 people). The complex includes dozens of undergrounds on several levels excavated to an average depth of 7 m. They constituted a real city, with wells, a hospital (17 children were born in this maternity hospital), meeting rooms and compartments used as housing for families.

Cet extraordinaire système de tunnels mérite une visite afin de mieux comprendre la vie des familles durant cette guerre récente et qui a laissé de nombreuses traces au Vietnam tant sur les sites que dans les esprits

Ces tunnels sont proches de Hué, si vous n' êtes pas loin allez-y, ça vaut le détour. En dessous de la terre, une véritable ville reconstituée, les tunnels sont étroits et très sombres,malgré une lègère luminosité, il se produit souvent des coupures électiques, ce qui effraie les visiteur.
