Hue's Citadel; and the Imperial Enclosure and Forbidden Purple City within.

About this place:

There are several impressive Royal Tombs around Hue from the Nguyen dynasty (1802-1945). You can rent a motorbike in Hue to venture the 2-16km to see them as they are spread around the banks of the Perfume River. Don't worry if you get a flat tire, as repair shops are plentiful and it will only set you back about 25 cents - we got two over the course of the afternoon! You can also get there by tour boat, but that would take a lot of the fun out of it.
