About Vietnamese Women's Museum

Clothing, photographs and everyday objects lift women out of history's footnotes. The permanent exhibitions organize the route into family, history and fashion, letting you see ceremonies, work and participation in conflicts through personal stories.

Read the stories attached to the pieces, in addition to looking at the fabrics. After Hoa Lo, the museum widens your view of Vietnamese society. To visit without rushing, cut back the citadel in the morning and keep this block for the afternoon.
