Anything worth looking up in Vietnam ?

[Stephen V]

Hello all

 

I'm off to sunny (make that very wet) Vietnam tomorrow for a few weeks.

 

Is there any recognised museums or other commercial businesses that are worth a look at in regard to nihonto?

 

I'm assuming not, but thought I would ask just on the off chance.

 

Cheers

not that i am aware of, however if you really want to dive into history i would most certainly visit the Chu Chi museum with its VC tunnels, Da Nang, Saigon and all places where there have been battles...

 

have a lovely trip!

Hi Stephen,Vietnam is fantastic. I was there for a month in April 2000. If you get a chance go to Hue and the Imperial City. Hoi-An is very nice also its where I based my self.Great food,very cheap made to measure clothes.I met a lot of Aussies and Americans there.Hanoi is cool too.Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
