During the war, the villagers dug the tunnels by hand, desperate to hidefrom heavy bombing, said the website. “There are kitchens, wells, androoms here where families lived underground for years.”
The three-level system is nearly 2km long. There are kitchens, wells,spaces for healthcare, and rooms where 94 families lived underground foryears. As many as 17 children were born in the tunnels during the war.
The system is also testament to the endurance, wisdom and bravery of thelocal population. Rather than flee, 350 Vinh Moc villagers chose tocreate a series of interconnected bomb shelters from 1965 to 1966.
“Today, along with the former Demilitarised Zone, the tunnels can be explored on guided tours,” the website said.
