Hoa Lo Prison Relic

Hỏa Lò Prison was a prison in Hanoi originally used by the French colonists in Indochina for political prisoners and later by North Vietnam for U.S. prisoners of war during the Vietnam War. During this later period, it was known to American POWs as the "Hanoi Hilton."

It was reported that there were 2000 prisoners crammed into a space that was intended for up to 600 people. In addition to the bad living conditions, prisoners were also chained to the ground and beaten by the guards, 

Hoa Lo Prison museum also holds a night tour every weekend, which will give tourists an emotional experience thanks to the lighting and sound effects. It will help tourists understand what Vietnamese patriots had to endure in prison.

Open from 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM daily.
