Start the Hue Royal Tombs Tour today is the Minh Mang Royal Tomb. With a total area of 28 hectares with about 40 monuments, the tomb is not only the burial area but also the working place of the Minh Mang emperor in the afterlife. Minh Mang Tomb is surrounded by green trees and the calm and quiet space of rivers and lakes and the solidity of mountains. This charming beauty is also embellished by a fragrant lotus pond in the middle of the mausoleum.
Keep doing the Hue royal tombs tour, we will explore the Khai Dinh Tomb– the royal tomb of the 12th emperor of the Nguyen Dynasty. You will be overwhelmed by its uniqueness and excellent blend of all kinds of architecture.
The highest artistic value of the Mausoleum is the interior decoration of Thien Dinh Palace. The three naves in the palace are decorated with reliefs made of porcelain and colored glass. The Khai Dinh Tomb is the only royal tomb that we know exactly where the emperor’s coffin is.
Last but not least in our Hue Royal Tombs Tour is the Tu Duc Tomb– the royal tombs of the 4th emperor of the Nguyen Dynasty. This is the special royal tomb because it is not only the burial area but also the 2nd residence of the Emperor. The Royal tomb of Tu Duc reflects exactly the characteristics of the romantic and talented emperor who is good at poetry.
The tomb of Tu Duc with a gentle appearance, located in a charming landscape of mountains and lakes, is considered one of the most beautiful mausoleum architectural works of the Nguyen Dynasty in the 19th century.
On the way back to your hotel from Tu Duc Tomb, if you like, our driver will stop at Thuy Xuan incense village for you to enjoy the handicraft works of the locals. You also can learn how to make incense by yourself. After all, we will drop you off at your hotel in Hue city. Tour ended.
