Cu Chi Tunnels

In order to combat better-supplied American and South Vietnamese forces during the Vietnam War, Communist guerrilla troops known as Viet Cong (VC) dug tens of thousands of miles of tunnels, including an extensive network running underneath the Cu Chi district northwest of Saigon. Soldiers used these underground routes to house troops, transport communications and supplies, lay booby traps and mount surprise attacks, after which they could disappear underground to safety. To combat these guerrilla tactics, U.S. and South Vietnamese forces trained soldiers known as “tunnel rats” to navigate the tunnels in order to detect booby traps and enemy troop presence. Now part of a Vietnam War memorial park in Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon), the Cu Chi tunnels have become a popular tourist attraction.
大概一个半小时的车程,抵达大名鼎鼎的Cu Chi Tunnels。
下洞拍照。
尝试走了40米的Tunnel。如果是大概1955年左右挖的,到现在大概60年了。
被飞弹射到的痕迹。
 
制作武器。
 
用山水洗手。 
在地洞里煮饭,然后把烟引导到另外一个出口,避免被炸。
 
另外,还参观了一些当年用的残忍的陷阱。战争就是残酷的。
还是觉得很值得可以参观到一个20年的战争留下的历史痕迹!
