Luc Bo culture space belongs to Hue monument relics which was known as Phu Phu Chinh (the working place of mandarin). Since December 2015, this was become a destination for local people and tourist, a showroom of royal products and rebuilt traditional craft villages. This will be an ideal place, beautiful atmosphere to keep Hue memories.
We visited Luc Bo Cultural Space with our daughters of 7 and 9. They had a wonderful time painting their own conic hats and painting kites while we enjoyed a royal tea. Very friendly staff, eager to communicate and share some tips about Hue. Absolutely recomended! Perfect to combine with a visit of the imperial city of Hue as it just a 5 min. walk from the exit/entrance.

Enjoy a cruise on the Dragon Boat to go upstream the Perfume River and discover the surroundings of the city. When you will arrive at the different piers, you will go to discover the emperors' tombs and their secondary houses, without being carried by servants and followed by a procession, but in a more modern way; by car, by motorbike or by bicycle.

This former site of the old capitol has a moat and ten ornate gates guarding a palace, temples, gardens and tombs. Its most prominent feature is a tall flag tower.
Spent a few hours inside the grounds and so much history to take in and appreciate...a very peaceful and expansive experience..a must see destination if heading to Vietnam

Lang Khai Đinh - Mot Ngoi Lang bieu tuong cua xu Hue mong mo, ngoi lang co nien đai hon 100 nam đang la điem đen thu hut khach du lich tu phuong
After visiting several tumors in Southeast Asia particular Vietnam, this one is stunningly different. You will climb many flights of stairs to reach the pinnacle, and it is well worth the effort. The architecture, design, the color schemes, and the general feel of this tomb is different than any other I’ve seen. A good guide can explain the history and the story behind this monument . Make sure to take time to enjoy the spectacular view of the surrounding valley.

This captivating palace, full of symbolic statues, is situated just inside the Citadel’s main entrance.
Just after crossing the magnificent "Cua Ngo Mon", the awesome "Noon Gate" of the Imperial Citadel, you will reach "Thái Hòa" - the "Palace of the Supreme Harmony". Built in 1805 by Emperor Gia Long, it is a landmark of Hue Imperial Citadel. "Thái Hòa" is certainly the largest and most beautiful palace in the Citadel's complex. In its interior, the famous golden throne of the Emperors of the Nguyen Dynasty, surrounded by innumerable red lacquered columns, with emblems of royal dragons. It was mainly used for the Imperial court's rituals, such as celebrations, anniversaries, weddings, coronations and diplomatic ceremonies. "Thái Hòa" palace was pretty much damaged during Vietnam War, but has been restored to its full beauty! And remember, Hue and its monumental complex was appointed by Unesco, in 1993, as a "World Heritage Site"! Another good reason to do not miss it! Enjoy!

This was the first of the three tombs that we visited with our private driver on our historical tour around Hue. Beautiful gardens and interesting buildings, you work your way from the entrance through to the final resting place. We didn’t hire an audio guide but felt there was sufficient explanation, in English, to satisfy us. Easy to spend a couple of hours here.

Located within the Hue Citadel, between the Hiem Lam Pavilion and the Mieu Temple, they were cast between 1835-1837. The giant urns honor nine Nguyen Dynasty rulers, with the largest and most elaborate at center, dedicated to Gia Long, founder of the Nguyen Dynasty. Most definitely worth the walk to view.

Do not miss this Imperial Tomb. Lots of steps but well worth the effort. Looks so bleak, dark and grey from the outside. Amazing statues in the courtyard and great views of the surrounding countryside. Inside is a fabulous decorated tomb, the ceiling is worth the visit on its own. Tomb and surrounding building covered in beautiful mosaics. Would have liked to have stayed longer and learnt more.

Charred remains of the royal family’s inner sanctum occupy this area within the Citadel. It is partially rebuilt with plans for future restoration.
Beautiful, lots of history - Hue was the original capital of Vietnam under the Ly Dynasty, take a tour so you can get all the information and take your time. very impressive, too bad it was damaged during the war. Do the tuk tuk ride around the outside of the palace. It was strange for me to have someone ride me around but I did enjoy it.
