For a different perspective of the police system in Hanoi, spend some time at the Hanoi Police Museum. You’ll get a better understanding of the growth of the police force over the years, in addition to seeing the seized contrabands from the Vietnamese police.

The museum itself is modern and spacious and contains thousands of artifacts that relate back to the history of Hanoi’s Police system. In addition to the artifacts, there are brochures, leaflets and website pages all in Vietnamese, English and French.

The Hanoi Police Museum is a great place to visit if you’re short on time as it is free to enter and only takes about 20-60 minutes to explore the highlights.
