It was once a French customs house. Vietnam History Museum The museum has an impressive collection of Vietnamese antiquities. Sadly though, they come with by signs in poor English and are reek of Marxist biases. Duc Minh Private Museum The Fine Arts museum has sixteen showrooms exhibiting paintings, pottery, sculpture and a few weapons. This collection of rare historical treasures and artifacts is fortunately accompanied with helpful English explanations. The largest city of Vietnam offers a veritable treasure house when it comes to interesting museums. Do visit! |
