Meeting point
Let's gather at the ticket office at the front entrance of Hoa Lo Prison

  • Hoa Lo Prison
    1st stop: Let's Go to Jail, where revolution was born. Built by the French in 1890s, to imprison Vietnamese revolutionaries, this place was meant to crush the spirit of independence. But it became a school of resistance.
  • Chua Tran Quoc
    Tran Quoc - the oldest Buddhist pagoda in Hanoi, nearly 1500 years. During the war, while bombs fell around Hanoi, this pagoda stood still. It was a place where people came to pray, light incense, and quietly hope they'd survive another night.
  • John Sidney McCain Memorial
    John McCain memorial - when enemies became peacemakers. In 1967, US Navy pilot John McCain was shot down. His plane crashed into Truc Bach Lake - and he parachuted right into the water behind you.
  • B52 Victory Museum
    What's better way to visit a museum with a veteran who served in Hanoi's air defense during 1972 bombings.
  • Huu Tiep Lake and the Downed B-52
    A B52 bomber, once feared in the skies, now lying quietly in a pond. A real wreckage, which was shot down during the Christmas bombings of 1972. You will meet one of very few survivors who lived this story - not through books, but through their bones.
  • Hanoi Old Quarter Vietnam
    End our journey not in fear, but flavor - with Hanoi's most famous drink: egg coffee. Watch and learn how they invented and made it through hardship. As you sip, think of this: a city that survived fire and fear, now serving warmth and welcome. That's Hanoi. That's Vietnam.
