Itinerary
07:00 – 08:20: Our driver will pick you up at your hotel in Da Nang city. We start the Hue City Tour from Da Nang. On the way to Hue, our driver will go through Hai Van Tunnel – the longest tunnel in Southeast Asia at 6.28km (not Hai Van Pass).
09:30: The next place in the Hue tour from Da Nang, we will stop at Lap An lagoon with nice views of the brackish water lagoon, the place where local fishermen plant oysters. There is a cafeteria there with a lagoon view and you also can taste the best Vietnamese coffee (self-pay)
10:45: We reach Hue city.
As you know, all the emperors of the Nguyen dynasty thought that this life was just a temporary life. When you pass away, you will live a real life. So what you need in this life, you would need in the after-life. So the first thing they did when they first came to the throne was to order the Feng Shui tellers to find the perfect Feng Shui places to build the tombs. Please remember it, everything inside the tombs has never been used in the past, only for their afterlife.
The first place is the Khai Dinh Tomb. We will visit the most beautiful and expensive royal tomb of the 12th emperor, the Khai Dinh Tomb. Not following traditional architecture, Khai Dinh Tomb is a mixture of Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, French, and Vietnamese architecture.
You will say twice WOW, WOW because it is such a fabulous tomb and the most beautiful tomb in the world. At the Khai Dinh tomb, you can take some great photos and practice your photography skills.
12:00: Lunch at Restaurant
13:00: Continue to the 17th-century working Buddhist monastery of Thien Mu Pagoda, considered by many to be the unofficial symbol of the city.
14:00: After that, we will visit the Hue Citadel. Hue was the capital city of the Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam from 1802- 1945. Our guide will tell you some valuable information about the royal lives of Emperors, concubines, and eunuchs. It is a complex including 3 sections: The citadel (Protecting area); Royal city (The working area of the Emperor, civil servants, and military servants); The Forbidden City (The private area of the emperor, his concubines, and eunuchs).
