Museum of Ethnology, Hanoi – indoor exhibits

September 9, 2008 by Yein Jee

The Museum of Ethonology in Hanoi is a great place to have a glance at the traditional culture of Vietnam’s 54 ethnic groups. The museum is located the Cầu Giấy District, about 8km from city centre… took a bit of travelling time but worth a visit.

Sharing some photos below, taken inside the museum building…
