The Cu Chi tunnels give you a perspective on the Vietnamese war. It shows how the Viet Cong managed to inflict loss on the American army and maim many GIs. You can go into small areas of the tunnels and see how the Viet Cong moved around and fought against the Americans. Similar to the war remnants museum there is a lot of propaganda. You also get to see the crude man traps the Viet Cong used and many bomb craters from the B52 bombers. Very exciting and worth a visit.
