Hao Lo Prison

Hao Lo Prison is located in the French District of Hanoi. Here, Senator John McCain was a POW during the Vietnam War (or the American War as the natives call it). It was used as a prison until 1993 when it was finally converted into a museum, most of which highlights the gross injustices inflicted on Vietnamese during French occupation from the 1850s – 1950s.
