01 Day - ONE DAY IN HUE IMPERIAL CITY

Hue served as Vietnam's capital under the emperors of the Nguyen Dynasty from 1802 to 1945 and the city’s regal past can still be seen inside the walls of the Citadel and the Imperial City. Both were heavily damaged during the Tet Offensive of 1968 when the Communists took the city from the South and held it for 3 weeks. Now thanks to UNESCO funding, much of the City is being faithfully restored to its former glory. The Imperial City, created in the 19th century and modeled on the Forbidden City in Beijing, has many palaces and temples inside.

Our city tour begins at the Citadel and then moves in to the rolling hills of the surrounding countryside where we find the Royal Tombs to the Nguyen Emperors such Tu Duc and Khai Dinh. After having viewed the splendid landscaped gardens and ornate architecture of the kings' final resting places we return to Hue. Visit Thien Mu pagoda and enjoy
a boat cruise on the tranquil waters of the Perfume River. Back to the hotel around 05 pm
