Vietnam Military History Museum
The historical and valiant struggle of Vietnam against powerful invaders from France and the USA is a topic that most tourists have at least heard of. People now swarm to Vietnam in general and Hanoi in particular in an effort to understand how such a small nation as Vietnam was able to triumph in the previous fierce resistance struggle.
Therefore, as part of the Vietnam Communist Party's policy, the Ministry of Defence had the Vietnam Military History Museum's building constructed at the end of 1954. Its opening ceremony was held on December 22, 1959, in honor of the 15th anniversary of the founding of the Vietnam People's Army. This was done in order to retain and preserve the factual objects, artifacts, and vivid proofs of the great national heroic struggle.
Vietnam Military History Museum serves as the administrative hub for the army museum system in addition to being one of the seven national museums. The museum exhibits detail the military history of Vietnam from the time of its founding to the Ho Chi Minh era. On the grounds of the museum in Hanoi, there is a well-known ancient landmark known as the flag tower that is designated as a national historic cultural monument. With a height of about 31 m and a circumference of 180 m, the Tower was finished in 1812 after construction began in 1805.
Visitors to the Vietnam Military History Museum can view thousands of artifacts, including scale models, maps, pictures, and images from the previous Vietnam War. Visitors will now have a solid basic understanding of how the Vietnamese people's armed forces were formed, developed, and successful in their fight for freedom, independence, and peace.
The Vietnam Military History Museum is now open to all visitors, many of them are from France and the USA and they want to learn more about the secrets of the historic victory. More than 17 million people have visited it so far, including more than 2,141,000 foreigners from 150 different nations.
