FITO's second venue, in an old wooden house in Binh Hoa; open Saturdays only, booking required
This is FITO's second venue, under the same owner as the Vietnam Traditional Medicine Museum on Hoang Du Khuong, but located over in Binh Hoa and running at a different pace: the museum opens only on Saturdays, from 8:30 to 17:00, and you need to get in touch before visiting. The exhibits focus on traditional pharmacy – the craft of medicine-making – separate from the traditional medicine displays at the main venue. The setting is an old wooden house with elaborately carved doors. There is one notable service the main venue does not mention: free pulse-reading and diagnosis, which also requires booking in advance. Tickets are 120,000 VND for adults and for visitors taking photos; 90,000 VND for pupils, students, seniors and children aged 2 to 15. If you plan to visit both FITO venues on one trip, remember it can only be done on a Saturday, as this venue is closed on other days.
