Overview of Củ Chi Tunnels
Book a day Tour of Cu Chi Tunnels located in South Vietnam
The Củ Chi Tunnels are definitely worth the day trip out of Sài Gòn; experiencing these tunnels first hand is an amazing experience. Just 70km (40 miles) northwest from downtown Sài Gòn, the Củ Chi area lies at the end of the Hồ Chí Minh Trail and was the base from which Vietnamese guerillas used to attack Sài Gòn. As a result, the whole area became a “free-fire zone” and was carpet-bombed in one of many American “scorched-earth” policies. But the residents of Củ Chi took their war underground, literally, developing a network of tunnels that, at its height, stretched as far as Cambodia. These tunnels included meeting rooms, kitchens, and triage areas — it was an effective network for waging guerilla warfare on nearby U.S. troops!
