Hoa Lo Prison "Hanoi Hilton"

Not on our original itinerary, but because we had some time this afternoon we decided to visit Hoa Lo Prison. Originally one of the biggest prisons built by French colonists in Indochina.  It was later used to hold American prisoners of war who sarcastically dubbed it the "Hanoi Hilton".  Only part of the prison remains and it includes photos and displays of some of the "guests", including Senator John McCain.
