Encounter the impressive Imperial City and Citadel of Hue, a coastal fortress amid stunning mountain scenery. Hue, the former imperial capital of Vietnam, boasts the impressive Imperial City within its citadel walls. Protecting the citadel are ramparts and a moat with fortifications to defend the city within. As you enter through the towering main gate, you will appreciate the magnificent architecture and colorful gardens within this imposing citadel. Stroll the grounds and picture how the royal family once lived in this exclusive residence. Despite being heavily bombed during the 1960s and 1970s, there are some incredibly well-preserved sections, while others are being lovingly restored. End your day’s cultural quest by standing on the banks of the Perfume River, near the majestic seven-story Thien Mu Pagoda. This Pagoda of the Celestial Lady is Hue’s most iconic symbol and best-preserved religious monument.
