  • We visited three tombs during our stay in Hue. The best way to do this was to rent a scooter (which you can do from your hostel or rental shop). The three tombs are all reachable in the same day...

  • I didn't visit all the tombs in the town, but this was my favourite.. beautiful calm place, reminds me more some beautiful park than tomb/temple. Grab a book, some snack and just chill on the edge of the lake!
  • It's one of my favourite thoombs in Hue. It us more distant, but it's quieter, not too many tourists are going there, it's spacious, surrounded by the river and lakes. If you come before closing time, before 5 pm, you can witness the green parrots singing and nesting. It has a great atmosphere.
  • This is the burial site of the secon Vietnamese king. The favourite of the local people as you can see by the enormous mausoleom he has and by the many visitors. It is a very beautiful place with fancy buildings gorgeous plants and a calm atmosphere. I can highly recommend going there if you are already in Hue.
  • Really big tomb to explore. Not necessary to do it all but worth a visit during your time in hue. Also lots of places to take good photos
  • - It's a very large complex and interesting place to visit to explore the ancient emperor. - another must-visit place. - Entrance fee is 150,000 VND per person.
