Part of the imperial city citadel tour, we visited 3 ancient tombs of 3 kings of ancient Vietnam. Get a good guide, and he/she will explain why the 3 tombs are vastly different in styles and architecture, the religious beliefs that determine the layout of each tomb, and also all the interesting information of each king. You can’t say you have been to Hue if you have never visited the Imperial City Citadel and the Royal Tombs! This is a must visit!

Flamboyant, spectacular, magnificent. A fierce competition of tombs for sheer beaury and construction design. The way to Hue, where these elaborate burial structures, are located can be a tricky trip. It's off the beaten track, the roads are narrow, a situation made more difficult by the ongoing construction of more and more tombs. IT'S ALL WORTH IT. Our February visit was during the corona virus situation, leaving Vietnam UR fEBRUARY WAS almost tourist-less, so we had the place to ourselves and the deadly departed. A few construction workers were present but work was not busy. Maybe, partly due to the staggering cost of the construction that only the moneyed ones can afford the the tombs. Vietnam's tourism office should push this incredible sight, travel agencies should arrange more tours, to lure vsitors to this unusual attraction. The CITY OF GHOSTS as it is now called is not ghostly at all. It is a masterpiece of design, a grand memorial to beloved family members who have crossed the bar, symbols of reverence and affection for departd loved ones.

Free admission to this cemetery for the Vietnamese in the 1954 battle against the French. The cemetery is well manicured and has the lovely smell of incense that is burning at the gravestones. This is just across the street from the museum. Both are worth visiting.
