HUE CITY TOUR

Situated in Central Vietnam, the city of Hue stretches on an area of rolling hills and mountains among small and narrow plains, sand dunes and large marshes and lagoon. To the west is the Truong Son range, and to the East, the immense Bien Dong (East Sea)

Generally speaking, Hue is considered the sole ancient city of Vietnam which remains virtually intact through the passage of time and several decades of war. The city represents Vietnamese ancient architecture in the early half of the 19^th century. Here nature blends with man-made creations, giving the city a harmonious trait with a variety of royal palaces, mausoleums and tombs, temples and shrines, mansion houses and offices of the nobility od the Thua Thien Hue area.

This harmony, a characteristic of the area, can be found not only in the nature and the city’s monuments, but also in its people. Here, each person seems to be an inborn poet and philosopher. They are sentimental but witty, simple but proud, and sweet but courteous. Hue is also known as one of the cradles of the national traditional music, a place where former delicious royal and popular dishes are served, and where ingenious traditional fine-arts and handicraft products can be found.
