The system of tunnels at Cu Chi were made in several decades to accommodate guerrilla warfare. At the height the total length of the tunnels was over 250km.

For several decades Cu Chi accommodated local fighters in the war against the French and later Americans during their time in Vietnam. From Cu Chi, South Vietnam Liberation Front commanded several attacks to the surrounding bases of the US and South Vietnam Republic and on Saigon.

Nowadays, there are two main sites that the visitors visit at Cu Chi: Ben Dinh and Ben Duoc. The former was the Commander Base of the district of Cu Chi and the latter was the Commander Base of Saigon – Cho Lon - Gia Dinh Province.
