This place used to be a steel fortress of the socialist North during the years of fighting against the US to save the country. Vinh Moc Tunnels are designed like a miniature underground village. Including 94 family apartments, with fresh water wells, a hall, a canteen, a maternity home, an operating room, and a bomb shelter.
