History Museum

The History Museum, built in 1929 by the Société des Études Indochinoises, is just inside the main entrance to the city's zoo. The museum has an excellent collection of artifacts illustrating the evolution of the cultures of Vietnam, from the Bronze Age Dong Son civilization and the Oc Eo civilisation, to the Chams, Khmers and Vietnamese. The Museum is open from 8:00 to 11:30am and 1:30 to 4:30 pm daily.
