  • Tu Duc tomb is, in my eyes, the least interesting tomb in the region around Hue. This would not be the first one I would recommend, even though it is still nice. The place is very big and there are...

  • 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...

  • This place is incredibly beautiful and can take 30 to 45 minutes to see it all. Lots of good photography places and the tomb itself is really well kept. Tickets are not expensive at all, around 100,000 if I remember correctly. No need to book online, tickets are at the door and there is plenty of space to walk around, a gift shop, toilets and a photography section if you want to sit on the throne and get dress ups. Ofcourse that's an additional price inside.
  • - It's an interesting place to visit. - Recommend to come early in the morning when it's nice and cool,not too hot. And browsing through place to place at least 1 hour if you want to look carefully. - Entrance fee is 150,000 VND per person.
