This extensive network stretches over 200 km from Ho Chi Minh City to the Cambodian border, featuring countless trap doors, specially constructed living areas, storage facilities, weapons factories, field hospitals, command centers, and kitchens. Exploring the remaining tunnels offers a unique perspective on underground wartime life. Return to Ho Chi Minh City for lunch.
