Centre-ville, Oceanographic Museum

Oceanographic Museum, Nha Trang, Vietnam - Housed in a grand French-colonial building in the port district of Cau Da at the far south end of Nha Trang is the National Oceanographic Museum. Attached to the Oceanographic Institute founded in 1923, we can see colourful live marine life and the 60,000 jars of pickled specimens that make up the collection. There are also stuffed birds and sea mammals and displays of local boats and fishing artefacts.
