Da Nang, Vietnam

<< < (5/6) > >>

hangchoi:
We went to Hue on the next day. Hue once was the capital of Vietnam and there is palace there. The setting is like the one in Bejing but the scale is much smaller.

In front of the main entrance of the palace, there is a square with the flag of Vietname. Hmmmm like China, right?

hangchoi:
The entrance is called 午門. 3 main gates with a moat, perfect setting of Chinese type palace.

hangchoi:
The inner part is also similar with Chinese palace. Government department in front and royal family at the back. Main hall for assembly of official with their ranking plate on the waiting square.

hangchoi:
The corridors are still intact and well maintained but most of the open areas are lack of maintenance, due to shortage of resources and war in 70s. Only a few buildings are well kept.

hangchoi:
After we left the palace, next to it is a place showing a lot of US army equipment which were captured during the Vietnam war.
