Cu Chi Tunnels Vietnam. Tunnels, underground passages, which are stuffy, narrow and stuffy, but succeeded in bringing Vietnam to win the war against America. The Vietnam War itself raged for about 18 years. It ended in 1975. But this war tunnel is still enshrined in the Cu Chi area, 42 kilometers from Ho Chi Minh City, the largest city in Vietnam.

Cu Chi Tunnels aka Cu Chi Tunnels. Underground winding tunnels, where passing Vietnamese soldiers to avoid pursuit of the enemy. The small body of the Vietnamese (compared to the American soldiers), plus their agility and nimbleness became the capital for their silent movement in these holes. As well as being a connecting passage, the secret tunnel also had sleeping quarters, and even a kitchen for cooking. It also has hidden ventilation that keeps its occupants from shortness of breath underground.

The entrance hole is hidden and camouflaged by thick trees and leaves. Even if the Americans did find them, they would be too big to get in and move around inside. It's too risky to penetrate this hole anyway. They might actually be trapped by the enemy underground.

In addition to tunnels, the strategy of guerrilla warfare launched by the Vietnamese army was supported by various traps for the enemy, which they made themselves and planted in the jungle.
