[2024 Hue Stay] Travel Guide for Indochine Palace (Updated Nov)
Compared to Nha Trang in Vietnam, I have a deeper affection for this little World Heritage town
Located a two and a half hour train ride from Da Nang, Hue, the former capital of Vietnam, is home to the Hue Imperial City, An Dinh Palace, royal tombs, and more, with historical relics everywhere, thus it has been designated as a World Cultural Heritage site👏🏻
Renting a motorcycle🛵 to roam around, or walking🚲 through the ancient streets, you can touch the civilization of the past in this open-air historical museum called Citywalk. Quieter than Hanoi, more rustic than Hoi An, the niche yet treasured Hue is really worth a visit❗️❗️
