Army Engineers Museum - Hanoi
Not as well know as many of the other sights in Hanoi, the Army Engineers Museum makes for an interesting visit! As the name suggests, the museum covers the extraordinary history of the Engineers with displays outlining their work in the battle of Dien Bien Phu, the construction of the Ho Chi Minh Trail to the efforts of the of the Engineers in rebuilding the Long Bien Bridge (Hanoi) after it was repeated bombed during the Vietnam War.
There are many photos showing Vietnam's wartime "Hero's", it's Generals and the many men and women that took up arms to fight (and defeat) numerous foreign armies.
The Army Engineers Museum is not a popular hang out for travelers, so grab a motor bike taxi and tell them to go here:
