Vietnam Museum of Ethnology in Hanoi offers an insight into the 54 different ethnic groups of Vietnam in an effort to preserve cultural heritage and promote socio-cultural diversity within the country.
Outside View of Vietnam Ethnological Museum
The museum is packed full of information detailing traditional Vietnamese ways of life, from religious events to the symbolic rituals of all the Vietnamese ethnic groups, providing a rich tapestry of the culture melting pot existing in Vietnam.
An open-air exhibition in the museum’s spacious and peaceful ground features ethnic houses from all over Vietnam. The outdoor museum is of much captivation to most tourists not only for the cultural values but also for a natural landscape.
One of the main features of the museum is to present the artefacts in a simple manner so that visitors can enjoy them without being overwhelmed by detail.
The museum is suitable for children and all documents and display signs throughout have been translated into French and English.

The museum is open during the daytime (08:30 a.m – 05:30 p.m) from Tuesday till Sunday (exept only Monday and the Lunar Tet Holiday).
