Hue - elegant ancient capital
Wed , 03/06/2009 --- Update at 10:24 GMT+0700
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. The first feeling that Hue deeply touches yours soul is charming. That beautiful city is situated along the two sides of Perfume River.
 

In the morning, our guide picks you up at the hotel. Board into Dragon Boat along the charming Perfume River . Visit the tranquil pagoda named Thien Mu. From there, the car will take you to the Imperial Citadel, once the seat of the Emperors of the powerful Nguyen Dynasty that ruled Vietnam from approximately 1800 to 1945.
You'll then enter via the Noon Gate to wander around the Thai Hoa Palace , the Pavilion housing the Nine Urns of the Nguyen rulers, and the remains of the Royal Palaces.
Lunch time is for experiencing a typical garden house - a unique feature of Hue named Y Thao Garden. Enjoy the delicious dishes, cooked by the host - Madame Cuc who prepares and serves a traditional meal based on the distinctive characteristics of classic Hue cuisine.
In the afternoon, have a drive to the two best King tombs. If Minh Mang tomb is the most majestic one, then Khai Dinh tomb shows the complete contrast as a concrete construction. Late afternoon tea, get back to the hotel. We end the tour or choose other options as a Hue folk music show on Dragon Boat.
