Con Dao Island Historical Sites and Heritage Experience

In the morning or afternoon, your driver will pick you up from your hotel lobby in Con Dao town to begin the historical tour.

The Con Dao Museum showcases the island’s powerful history, once known as the “hell on earth,” through thousands of artifacts, photos, and documents that highlight the lives of prisoners and the resilience of revolutionary soldiers.

The Governor’s Palace (Dinh Chúa Đảo) is a major historical site in Con Dao, featuring French colonial architecture and exhibits that reveal the island’s harsh prison system and revolutionary past.

Visit Phu Hai Prison, the French and American Tiger Cages, and the Cow Shed Isolation Area—notorious sites that reveal the harsh prison system of Con Dao and the resilience of Vietnamese revolutionary prisoners.

Visit Vo Thi Sau’s Grave at Hang Duong Cemetery, a sacred site honoring the national heroine and symbol of courage in Con Dao. After paying tribute, your vehicle will transfer you back to your hotel.
