OVERVIEW
Hue was Vietnam's capital (under the Nguyen imperial dynasty) between 1802 and 1945. The port is located on
Perfume River, some 700 km (430 ml) south of Hanoi and 1100 km (680 ml) north of the capital Ho Chí Minh City. Hue is an ideal destination for those who love culture, history and natural beauty. With the gentle Perfume River, majestic temples, palaces, and royal tombs, Hue takes you back in time to the era of Vietnam’s last feudal dynasty. In Hue, you don’t just sightsee; you feel the rare tranquility and slower pace of life, making each moment a memorable experience.
