Vietnam Museum of Ethnology Southeast Asia Building

One corner of the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology contains the Southeast Asia Building, dedicated to an extended vision of the cultures all over Southeast Asia.

I start on the top floor, people of Southeast Asia around Vietnam.

The next hall features an exhibit of Indonesian glass painting.

Then, a slight detour to exhibits from other Asian countries, beyond Southeast Asia.

Then, a few galleries show some of the museum's Around the World collection, including Morocco, Turkey, Ethiopia, and ending the visit with a collection of Indonesian masks.

Between the stories of the life of the 54 ethnic groups in Vietnam and the peek into other cultures offered the the Museum of Ethnology, this has been a fabulous stop!
