Vinh Moc Tunnels

The Vinh Moc Tunnels are a network of underground tunnels in Vietnam, built during the Vietnam War as protection from bombings. Stretching about 2.5 miles, they provided safety, living space, hospitals, and storage for villagers and soldiers. Carved into the clay mountains, these tunnels helped locals avoid violence while maintaining a connection to their community. Today, they serve as a historical site, illustrating wartime resilience and ingenuity. Visitors can explore sections of the tunnels, gaining insight into wartime life and the strategies used to survive in conflict zones.
