Central Vietnam Trip 2024 - Day 2 - Hue City - Imperial Citadel and Trishaw Ride to Dong Ba Market

After breakfast, we visited the Imperial Citadel - famously being one of Vietnam's seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the Imperial City of Hue has long been a must see attraction for tourists visiting a hidden charm of Vietnam. Thai Hoa Palace, Halls of the Mandarins and ruins of Forbidden Purple City.



The Palace looked so colourful.

Beautiful palace with unique colours.


Inside the palace were furniture once used by the Emperor.



After touring the palace, we took the optional tour of riding the trishaw from the palace to Dong Ba Market. The ride was about 20 mins. We paid S$15 for the ride. 


We were give some time to shop at Dong Ba Market before heading for lunch.
