City of Ghosts - An Bang Cemetery, Vinh An

It’s a cemetery but very magnificent :) because all the families here think that building huge beautiful tombs for their parents when they die is the best way to show their respects to them. So they try to compete to see whose parents’ tombs are bigger (to show their wealth off as well) You can go take picture for free. But don’t be rude to any tomb

Incredible place between danang and hue ( close to hue) not to miss . A real cemetery with extra giant tombs over km2 . Very impressive and never saw that anywhere else in Vietnam ( and asia) NOT TO MISS if you drive between hue and danang

This is one of the hidden site about 40km away from the City of Hue is the An Bang City of Ghosts. Tombs are spread across a stretch of few kilometers near the Thuan An Beach. The tombs were elaborately designed and built under Buddhism, Taoism, Catholicism, Vietnamese, Chinese and Western architectural influences. A must visit for tourist looking for a rare & unique experience near Hue.

When the Vietnam war finishied many Vietnamese fled the country by boat. Regretfully some died in their attemps but some found new countries to live in. As the years past those vietnamese who went to America sent money back to relatives so they could build graves for their dead. With such a lot of money coming in the remaining relatives went over the top and build massive morsalium styled graves. This is must go and see and experienceto walk around with very few other tourist and experience the colour, forms and shapes generated.

One of the most beautiful cemeteries I have ever seen. Well worth the trip.
