Cu Chi Tunnels - Underground Base Bunkers
The Cu Chi Tunnels are located in Phu Hiep hamlet, Phu My Hung commune, Cu Chi district, Ho Chi Minh City. They are a vivid testament to the indomitable will and extraordinary creativity of our army and people during the two protracted wars of resistance. Beginning in 1946–1948, the tunnels were dug manually by the people of Tan Phu Trung and Phuoc Vinh An communes to create shelters, hide weapons, and await the opportunity to counterattack the French colonialists.
During the war against the US, this system continued to be expanded and strengthened by the National Liberation Front of South Vietnam. Complex structures such as command bunkers, meeting rooms, infirmaries, and kitchens were meticulously designed, intelligent, and strategically important. The tunnels became a "steel core base" protecting the leadership forces of the Saigon-Gia Dinh area.
Today, the Cu Chi Tunnels historical site is not only a proud symbol of the resistance spirit but is also internationally recognized as one of the six most famous man-made structures in the world , and among the top seven most bizarre destinations in Southeast Asia. Every year, it welcomes millions of domestic and international visitors who come to explore, experience, and feel firsthand the arduous yet heroic fighting life of our ancestors.
