THE MUSEUM OF VIETNAMESE HISTORY

The Museum of Vietnamese History is located at 2 Nguyen Binh Khiem St, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City. When I visited the museum in April 2008, I snapped a few pictures that I never got a chance to post.


A mummy of Mrs. Tran Thi Hieu. The museum did not post what famous thing she did, but she died in 1869.

A bust of the leader Vietnamese leader Ho Chi Mihn, the man who lead Vietnam to be a single party Communist state.

I'm not sure what this is.

I'm sorry for the poor state of these photographs, but the museum would not allow flash photograph and my camera battery was low. On my Kodak CX7530 that is a recipe for poor quality pictures.

For more information, here's Asia for Visitor's guide to this museum.
