They recreate the struggle of people of Hà Nội and Hải Phòng who overcame sorrow and loss to achieve victory.
The items also show the life of imprisoned American pilots during their detention in Hỏa Lò Prison (nicknamed the Hà Nội Hilton), and the release of American prisoners of war at Gia Lâm Airport in Hà Nội in 1973.
