Museum of Vietnamese History also known as Bao Tang Lich Su, is a museum in Ho Chi Minh city housing a treasure trove of artifacts. You can find here items from prehistoric times, such as stone age tools, right down to the various artifacts from the different eras.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
