Insights, Polished History Lessons Await in Hanoi’s Massive, Brutalist Military Museum
Opened in early November 2024, the museum covers 386,600 square meters and cost approximately VND2.5 trillion (US$98.5 million) to build. Within the severe concrete walls are 150,000 objects related to several thousand years of conflict in Vietnam. Construction, hampered by COVID-19 delays, took almost five years. The opening roughly coincided with the 80th anniversary of the People’s Army of Vietnam, which was founded on December 22, 1944.
