Coi Nguon Museum

Honestly, what a waste! Some really interesting facts about the Phu Quoc area and their history. Too bad the English signs used the earliest version of Google translate, there's a lot of information. The dusty displays hamper proper viewing and generally the place is neglected and not maintained. It's 50K/person but I think it's worth a visit. The view from the upper floors are really nice.

National Coniology Museum is a fascinating exhibition for all you lovers of dust and dirt. Covering five floors, it's dedicated to the rich and varied world of general filth and well worth a visit. Each sample is lovingly displayed on local artifacts, fossilised wood, stone age tools, and pottery. Some of the more rarer exhibits are kept safe inside glass display cases on the lower floor. Gift shop is rather disappointing, no dust available, but some nice cultured and baroque pearls are available. My score has to be 9/10 👍

I am glad I came, saw and took pictures - we took the time to read all that was on display and discuss the history with our son. Some attention to detail is needed, the glass cabinets are not clear and some areas do need renewing. We love Vietnam and respect the history, plus I love the visuals/symbolism.

This is a wonderful place for fans of dusty museums! You can get acquainted with both nature and history of Vietnam, and also look from the roof at the city and the sea. It seems that there used to be a cafe on the roof - we wish for the speedy restoration of this option :). Our trip to Phu Quoc would not be complete without this museum!

Despite neglect and decay (see reviews), this museum is highly recommended. The extensive collection and information about the nature and history of Phu Quoc certainly deserves more attention. In my opinion, 50K is not too much for an entertaining and interesting further education with a beautiful view.

There is nothing. Poor old building😩. Lot of dust. Ticket 50,000d

Great experience, a mish-mash of everything but fun to see. More explanations in English would be great, as interesting as the exhibits were it was hard to know what we were seeing... what were the bones from? Why were the pots and plates of interest, how old were they and where did they come from, etc. Support this museum if you get here, you can see that funds are desperately needed for repairs to this amazing building and to assist staffing that would result in cleaner exhibit cases. 50,000 dong is really cheap for this experience. Well done to the curators!

it could become a nice museum but it was left unattended for many years... dusty shelves and dusty items.. actually, I liked fotoes better than the original things PS there were not original items from stone age - why did you claim so? any professional can catch you
