After some 15 hours of sleeper bus, here I am in Hue, the ancient capital of Vietnam under the Nguyen Dynasty. No unfortunately the weather is still not on my side: the first day that passes under a light rain but dense ... It gives me the opportunity to scroll through a collection of "ponchos" colores!
was not very attracted by this city, I decided to take part in a group for a day, so I will see all the attractions in record time! On the agenda: the forbidden city, temple and pagoda and the major tombs of the emperors.
Tombs, I confess, are simply impressive. The first is located on a hill and to prevent any looting, the emperor's body was buried in an unknown location. It shows also the statues of the "mandarins" advisers during his reign the emperor.
The second is much more impressive with a Vietnamese architecture with European influences. The interior is covered with mosaics sublime.
The last, as the former is vast, and the "advantage" of being in a group leaves us only 30 minutes to go around ... while 2h would not have been too!
way out, we stop in a village manufacturer of incense and the famous Vietnamese hats (which tell part "very touristy)
return to town is by boat ...
