A somber experience, but definitely worth it if in Hanoi. The prison is quite small, but there are a lot of materials and info to go through so make sure you have some time to spend there.

Great place to visit. Despite being small (more than half has been demolished to build Hanoi Tower), it provides a very good history/insight to the history of Hanoi.

Worth going as an American for the history seen from the other viewpoint. Relatively quick tour. A ticket is $1, and you can get a quick guidebook for another $1.

An interesting part of Hanoi's history. You will learn of brutal treatment by the French during occupation and how they opted to take care of captured US servicemen here. Entry runs 30,000VND.

Well worth the visit! Quite eerie as this was the place where Vietnamese independence fighters & later US pilots were imprisoned. Even US senator John McCain was confined here.
