More than 5,000 artifacts, comprise its collections, which include fossilized wood, turtle shells, sea shells, animal bones, relics from a nearby shipwreck, displays on Vietnamese medicines and historical artifacts including Stone Age implements and 17th-19th century pottery. There is a small section devoted to the Island’s storied history as a French colonial, and later, an American prison housing some 40,000 VC prisoners. There is also an entire floor dedicated to the lives of Phu Quoc’s present-day residents./p>
