War Remnants Museum
I underestimated the power of photography. The War Remnants Museum is essentially a gallery of photos from the Vietnam War. Before we went in to the museum we were able to see army tanks, helicopters and other military machinery that was left behind after the war.
The first room of the museum was dedicated to war propaganda, the second room to war crimes and the third room to agent orange effects on the Vietnamese. There were several rooms after the third but by the third I couldn't handle it. I left the museum after the third room. It was very difficult for me to see photos of the Vietnamese suffering at the hand of American soldiers.
