Southeastern Armed Forces Museum Military Zone 7, Military museum in Tan Binh District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
The Southeastern Armed Forces Museum in Military Zone 7 displays tanks, aircraft, and cannons arranged in outdoor sections that visitors can walk through. Inside, galleries contain photographs, documents, and weapons arranged to show how equipment changed across different periods.
Founded in 1988, the institution was created to document the roles and operations of forces in the region across several decades of military engagement. The collections focus on the periods when these military units were actively involved in major conflicts.
School groups and families visit to see personal belongings, uniforms, and weapons that belonged to soldiers who served in the region. These objects offer direct insight into how people lived and worked during military conflict.
The site has outdoor equipment displays and indoor galleries, so wear comfortable shoes and plan time for both areas. Visitors should allow extra time if the weather is hot, since much of the outdoor section offers limited shade.
Former soldiers and veterans regularly visit and share personal stories with guests, adding real accounts to the museum experience beyond what displays alone can show. These firsthand accounts reveal perspectives that transform how visitors understand the objects on display.
