A CULTURAL TRAVEL THROUGH IMAGES

Vietnam
Hue

A visit to the Imperial Citadel and forbidden Purple city is a must when you visit Hue, and it is impressive and well worth a couple of hours. It was a huge area, with a lot of interesting and beautiful buildings, hosting the emperors family and all his helpers. Unfortunately a lot was destroyed during two wars, but it has been rebuild and gives a good impression of what it must have been like, years ago.
