A Reflective Journey from Hoi An to My Lai: History, Memory, and Healing


This deeply meaningful full-day journey from Hoi An to My Lai offers an insightful exploration of Vietnam’s layered history, resilience, and enduring spirit. The day begins at Ba Ren’s lively Pig Market, where the energy of local trade provides an authentic glimpse into rural life. The route then continues to the Khuong My Towers, remnants of the ancient Cham civilization, followed by a stop at the Nui Thanh Victory Monument, which commemorates Vietnam’s struggle and perseverance through turbulent periods of history.


As the journey progresses toward My Lai, the atmosphere becomes more contemplative. At the My Lai Museum, visitors encounter a powerful and sobering account of the events of March 16, 1968, when hundreds of innocent civilians lost their lives. Through photographs, artifacts, and documented testimonies, the museum preserves the memory of the tragedy while encouraging reflection on the importance of peace and reconciliation.


Walking through the quiet village paths of My Lai adds a deeply personal dimension to the experience. Surrounded by peaceful rice fields and gentle rural landscapes, visitors meet local residents whose stories of survival and healing offer a moving perspective on forgiveness and resilience. This human connection transforms the visit from a historical lesson into an emotional and reflective encounter.


Today, My Lai stands not only as a memorial of past suffering but also as a symbol of hope and recovery. This tour provides a rare opportunity to engage with Vietnam’s complex history in a respectful and meaningful way, honoring the past while recognizing the strength and enduring spirit of its people.

Well... You can not make this a positive review. It is awful what happened here. It is a pity this exists. This is sadly enough a must see in Vietnam. So, what happened? During the Vietnam War, the Americans needed to get the anger and fear tunneled to the Vietcong. So an angry officer lied and send 3 groups of military to this village. They were told, this whole village was Vietcong. The American soldiers got a license to kill all Vietcong. But this was a lie. There was no Vietcong. There where only locals. And so everybody was killed. Everybody. Woman, children, grandparents. All except 2. One was saved by laying beneath killed people, acting died. And one was saved by an American helicopter pilot, which recognised this was no Vietcong. He stepped in and stopped the killing. A sad sad sad moment in human history. It is good we remember this and try to prevent it from happening again.

Do not waste money with tour packages, take a taxi, and entrance fee is 80 cents usd, or 20000 vnd. This is a great place to go see, takes about an hour.
