War Crimes Museum
This museum's message does not come from bombs, helicopters, and tanks in the courtyard. Rather the most disturbing aspect is from the display showing the after-effects of Agent Orange defoliation - bottled human fetuses with shocking deformities. There is a great number of photographs and a some additional exhibits illustrating Man's inhumanity - the Son My (My Lai) massacre on 16 March 1968, and the effects of napalm and phosphorous. However, don't expect to find any displays showing atrocities committed by the Viet Cong or North Vietnamese. Admission is VND 7000. It closes at 16:45.
