Hoa Lo Prison

Stop and visit the main attractions of the city: Hoa Lo (Hilton) prison and Temple of Literature *Hoa Lo Prison – A Haunting Glimpse into Vietnam’s Past: Located in the heart of Hanoi, Hoa Lo Prison, often referred to as the “Hanoi Hilton,” offers a powerful and sobering look into Vietnam’s turbulent history. Originally built by the French in the late 19th century to detain Vietnamese political prisoners, it later held American POWs during the Vietnam War. Today, the museum preserves chilling remnants of its past — from dark cells and iron shackles to personal stories of resilience and resistance. A visit to Hoa Lo is both moving and thought-provoking, shedding light on the struggles and strength of those who endured within its walls.
