Minh Mang’s Tomb, Thuy Bieu Village, Thien Mu Pagoda & Hue Citadel

At 8:00 AM, commence the day with a transfer from your hotel to Emperor Minh Mang’s tomb, a remarkable architectural masterpiece seamlessly blending nature and imperial religious structures.

Following this, return to the city center to explore Hue Citadel, the sole remaining symbol of Vietnam’s imperial city.
