Yes, the Coconut Prison on Phu Quoc is definitely worth visiting if you are interested in history and want to understand Vietnam more deeply. It is one of the most significant historical attractions on the island.

Phu Quoc Prison (Phu Quoc Coconut Tree Prison) is the most tragic and sad attraction on Phu Quoc. It was considered the largest prison in Southeast Asia, through which about 32,000 prisoners passed during its entire existence.

The visit leaves deep and unforgettable impressions about Vietnam's past and the resilience of its defenders. You will be able to:

  • Freely move around the prison territory
  • Enter barracks open for inspection
  • See vividly presented scenes of torture and violence using mannequins
  • Examine "tiger cages" made of barbed wire
  • Visit the museum with exhibits, photographs, and documents
