  • Hue Imperial City (The Citadel)

    Famously being one of Vietnam’s seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the Imperial City of Hue has long been a must-see attraction for tourists visiting a hidden charm of Vietnam. The Imperial City of Hue was actually a walled fortress and palace belonged to the ancient city of Hue which was a capital city of the Nguyen Dynasty for 140 years date back from 1805 until 1945. The grandeur architecture was planned to be built in 1803 by Gia Long – an emperor who founded the Nguyen Dynasty. During 27 years from 1805 to 1832, the Imperial City of Hue was finally completed under the reign of Minh Mang, making it the most massive structure being built in the history of modern Vietnam involving thousands of workers, millions cubic meters of rock and huge volume of burden workload. It locates on the northern bank of Huong River, turning South with total land area of 520 ha. The place was made UNESCO Site in 1993 with the remained buildings being actively restored and preserved after the destruction from the Vietnam War.

  • Tomb of Khai Dinh

    Despite being the smallest, Khai Dinh Tomb is the most recent and costly amongst other Nguyen royal tombs. Khai Dinh chose to build his tomb by modern materials like concrete, slates and wrought iron, hence its appearance is quite gray and imposing. At first, the main building brings about a strong Western feel, however, the landscape was arranged to reflect traditional perceptions: a balanced combination between wood, land, water and plants. Overall, it’s an emerging rectangular structure with 127 steps, leaning against the mountain. The side walls are formed by the biggest sculptures of dragons in all over Vietnam. After climbing upstairs, tourists can first see the house of epitaph. The statues of madarines court (including madarines, horses, soldiers...) are placed at the courtyard. The most notable place in Khai Dinh Tomb is Thien Dinh Palace, which contains bronze statues and steles of the King. Walls are densely decorated and inlaid with elaborate glass and porcelain designs. The most highlighted feature of this room is the intricate painting on the ceiling, illustrating nine dragons amidst fleeting clouds. Inside the tomb, there are two statues modelled the King: the one on the throne was sculptured in Paris in 1920 by Ducuing and Barbedienne.

    1 hour

Most enjoyable day trip into Hue's history

Published on Jan, 2025

One of the best tours we took. Our guide was Fi. Her English is excellent and her knowledge of Vietnamese history is impressive. She was also very personable and well spoken. Highly recommend Fi as your next guide.

The best way to learn about Hué!

Published on Mar, 2023

Sue was a great tour Guide explaining us a lot of the imperiaal history of Hué. The lunch in Xuan Dai restaurant was absolutely a highlight. As a tourist you would never ever have found this. This tour is a must do in Hué when you are there!

Wonderful experience can not recommend enough

Published on Feb, 2023

Absolutely great tour. Managed to get so much covered in the day. I like the fact that the tour numbers are kept small. Our guide (Bé Chị apologies if I have her name wrong 27 Feb 2023) had an excellent knowledge of all of the places we visited and was helpful throughout the day. She was able to answer additional questions the group had and more general topics about vietnam (as freelance I can highly recommend her to other Vietnamese travel companies). Her English is absolutely perfect. Overall a wonderful day to see the major highlights in vietnam. Thank you

Informative experience

Published on Jan, 2023

What an experience of this great Imperial city called Hue. Our tour guide, Bao was very informative and engaging and also a good photographer. Bao ensured we had a great understanding of Hue history. He took us to the citadel, the 2nd and 12th kings tomb and also to the place where incense are made. As usual, he answered our questions and he is very good with speaking English. I recommend Bao to anyone visiting Hue, you won't regret it.

Fabulous tour of Hue

Published on Dec, 2022
