Hue has long been spoken of as a beautiful ancient city and was the capital of Vietnam’s last feudal dynasty. The city is also a vibrant and youthful destination that offers a fresh and exciting holiday.

The Huong (Perfume) river is the heart of Hue and an iconic symbol of the city. A dragon boat trip is the best way to admire the 80-km-long river’s beauty and experience local culture and customs

Flamboyant trees, called “Flames of the forest”, add seasonal colour to Vietnam’s former imperial capital. Hue is home to around 1,000 flamboyant trees, and the closing days of June are the best time of the year to enjoy their beauty
