Chu Chi Tunnel @ Vietnam




I went to Chu Chi Tunnel which is an hour away from Ho Chi Minh City. Chu Chi Tunnel used to be a hiding place for the Vietnamese during the American War. The tunnel was so small that the people had to hide inside during the war. Life during the war was not as easy as what we think. They only had potatoes dipped with Peanut everyday as their meal to fight against the enemies.


The 3 days stay in Ho Chi Minh was actually not enough! How I wish I can travel there again!
