We will visit the DMZ museum and take a walk on this historic bridge. Then we head to the coast for the last stop of the day; Vinh Moc tunnels – an underground refuge of the fishing village of Vinh Moc, located above the DMZ. In early 1965, America began a massive bombing campaign against North Vietnam with the code name ” Rolling Thunder “. The area above the DMZ became the most heavily bombed single piece of land on earth. Unable to live on the ground, the local inhabitants had to dig and move their homes into the ground. Vinh Moc tunnels are the best example of the tunnels system in the DMZ area. We visit the museum then walk into the ground, starting with an entrance on top of the clay cliff and finishing with an exit overlooking a wild beach. Arrive Hue about 6 pm in the afternoon.
