Hue is one of the most popular destinations for visitors to Vietnam.
Straddling the Perfume River, this mysterious, somber city is a
historian's dream come true, with numerous 19th century ruins, royal
tombs and an excellent museum. The Imperial City of Hue was the
capital of Vietnam during the reign of the Nguyen dynasty, the last
dynasty in Vietnam. Even today, the Vietnamese regard Hue with awe
and respect. Hue also has the distinction of being one of the rainiest
cities in Vietnam, receiving more than 120 inches each year.
