The hotel in Hue was able to provide a transfer to Da Nang Airport! We arrived at night and drove 3 hours to Hue. The next day we took a tour of Hue city.

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 The Khai Dinh Tomb on Chau Chu Mountain is not large in area, only about 117 meters long and 48.5 meters wide. It is far smaller than the Tu Duc Tomb and the Minh Mang Tomb, but it is very exquisite, and its architectural style incorporates European and Asian elements, which is of great artistic value. Khai Dinh was the father of Bao Dai, the last emperor of the Nguyen Dynasty, who ascended the throne in 1885. In the reality of the struggle between the traditionalists dominated by Confucianism and the French colonial system, Khai Dinh was more pro-French and visited France in 1922. He enacted many new laws to restrict the expansion of anti-French forces, which caused dissatisfaction among many nationalists. In addition, in 1920, he ordered an increase in taxes just to build his new mausoleum. Therefore, he received mostly negative reviews at home. This mausoleum, built on a hillside, has a total of 127 steps. When you arrive at the square in front of the pavilion, you will see two rows of civil and military officials lined up as usual. However, if you look closely, you will find that there are six more pairs of statues than in other imperial tombs. These are the personal guards established by Emperor Khai Dinh. This pavilion building has traditional flying eaves, but is built with reinforced concrete, integrating the features of European arches and columns. Both the columns and the dragon decorations on the roof are very delicate and moving. The cross-shaped fence near the pavilion is very European in style. Address: Vietnam #VietnamTravel #Hue

The World Cultural Heritage Khai Dinh Tomb is the mausoleum of the Vietnamese puppet emperor Khai Dinh. It took 11 years to build in 1931. Although small, it is the most exquisite of all the imperial tombs. Note: The name of the World Cultural Heritage is Hue Historical Buildings, including Hue Imperial City, Khai Dinh Imperial Tomb, etc.

The Tomb of Khai Dinh is located about 10km southwest of the historic city of Hue in central Vietnam. It takes about 20-30 minutes by car from Hue Railway Station, making it quite accessible. Situated on the hillside of Chau Chu Mountain, the tomb's grandeur is further highlighted by the surrounding natural scenery. Although the Tomb of Khai Dinh is relatively small compared to other imperial tombs, its various decorations and intricate details are overwhelming. The unique architectural beauty, which blends European and traditional Vietnamese styles, is particularly striking. The walls and ceilings are adorned with elaborate mosaics made of numerous colored glass and ceramic pieces, which are truly awe-inspiring. At the center of the tomb stands a statue of Emperor Khai Dinh, which was made in France and transported here. This statue is a historical remnant that reflects the relationship between Vietnam and France at that time. Since there are many stairs and they can be slippery, it is recommended to wear light sneakers when visiting!

There are many steps up to the tomb but well worth the climb. The interior and exterior are beautiful.📍Address:xã Thủy Bằng, huyện Hương Thuỷ Huế Thua Thien-Hue Province, 530000💰Average Price per Person: Get the best price by buying a combo ticket to the Citadel and 2 Tombs.

📍Khai Dinh Imperial Tomb Who would believe that this glittering gold is a tomb?! Khai Dinh Imperial Tomb is the tomb of an emperor from the Nguyen dynasty. It is a famous tourist spot in Hue and is also registered as a World Heritage Site. Actually, this emperor was quite disliked in Vietnam at the time... It is said that he made them pay a lot of taxes to build this tomb. Also, the fact that he was pro-French in Vietnam under French rule was a factor in his dislike due to the historical background. However, ironically, it is the only building in the world that combines French and Chinese elements, and it is a World Heritage Site. It is true that other imperial tombs have a strong Chinese element, but this one has a Western element and is quite interesting. There are several other imperial tombs in the area, and tourist spots are scattered around, so it would be interesting to compare them. It is also far from the city center, such as Hue Imperial Palace, so it is convenient to charter a taxi for sightseeing. For solo travelers, we also recommend motorbike taxis. There are also discounted tickets that include other attractions, so please purchase according to your plans 😉 Location: Khải Định, Thủy Bằng, Hương Thủy, Thừa Thiên Huế 530000 #overseastraveltrip #Vietnam #Vietnamtrip #Hue #WorldHeritage #solotravel #solotravel #SoutheastAsian #backpacker

#vietnamtrip Besides being a tomb, this place has a good vibe, a peaceful energy and a beautiful architecture. I don't know anything about the history of the emperor Khai but I think he may have been a good ruler. There is a guide in the top chamber where you can see the portrait and all the beautiful gems and paintings. If you have time to visit a Tomb, this one is a good choice to spend you time and money. The entrance is 150k dong for foreigners. If I'm not mistaken, kids until a certain height or age pay like half this price.

Every detail in the tomb is elaborately carved, from the stone steps, the three-door gate to the decorative reliefs made of porcelain and glass imported from France, China and Japan. The most prominent highlight is the Thien Dinh main hall, where the magnificent bronze and gold-plated statue of King Khai Dinh is located.
