Bảo tàng Dân tộc học Việt Nam

Why go

The Vietnam Museum of Ethnology is an ethnographic museum in Hanoi; Vietnam's national tourism board says it examines the everyday life of Vietnam's 54 ethnic groups, has three main exhibition areas showing costumes, handicrafts, videos and artefacts, and an outdoor space with life-size replicas of ethnic architecture, and gives its address as Nguyễn Văn Huyên Street, Nghĩa Đô. The same page credits the building's design to the Tày architect Hà Đức Lịnh and the French architect Véronique Dollfus. The museum's own website refused the connection in this session, so no entry or booking rules are given here.
