carefully tending the bonsai garden.
Thirteen Nguyen Dynasty Emperors ruled Vietnam from Hue. Hue suffered
damages during the war, but today has regained it's royal demeanour and is a
calm, peaceful and relaxed place to visit. The remaining French colonial garden
houses and villas, the quiet streets, the riverbanks, the outlying tombs and
pagodas that escaped damage - all give Hue a unique atmosphere of tranquillity.
The hills surrounding Hue are dotted with the tombs of the Nguyen dynasty
emperors. Built not only as an eternal resting place, the tombs were
designed for recreation; somewhere the Emperor could fish, hunt and enjoy the company
of concubines in his twilight years. The Imperial Citadel, which has a 10km
