My travel agent told me there wasn't much to see in Hue. She was so WRONG!!! I absolutely loved it in Hue. Please take me back here again!!! And the HiVin pass is a must by motorcycle.

BEAUTIFUL FACTS ABOUT HUE. LOVE YOUR VIOLET ICONIC 'AO DAI'...

[@quangvinh1153]

Mở bản đồ Huế lên, nhìn địa hình thì sẽ thấy cực nhiều cảnh vật thay đổi. Ở huế ngắm được cả bình minh và hoàng hôn. Nhiều bãi biển, nhiều đầm phá. Mình thích con đường từ kinh thành đến lăng vua gia long. Đi qua cầu phao sông Tả Trạch thấy non nước hữu tình. Đi ven sông cứ như lạc cảnh ngắm núi non, sông nước, mây trôi Huế bị thời tiết cản trở du lịch phát triển với mùa đông lạnh cóng kèm mưa dầm.

Vietnam traditional dress is the nicest traditional dress for girls i've ever seen from any nation. U r nice with it too. Btw, Today I got to know a place call An Giang. I saw some nice places in that area. Hope you will do a video about that area as well...

[@stevebraddick247]

Thankyou so much for bringing back such happy memories of my visit to Hue I really loved that combination of Vietnamese and French colonial style.I want to go back to visit the famous college there,visit the centre near the Imperial City run by people with mental disabilities (it sounds amazing especially as I work in this sector here in London UK) and at the city centre hotel where I stayed they had a scheme where hotel guests could volunteer to spend a few hours of their stay helping poor Vietnamese students with their English language.Sadly I only discovered this on my last day but I vowed to return as I felt it was a wonderful idea by the hotel manager.Sadly this damn virus situation as spoiled my plans but I am trying to remain patient.Being British I thought I might be able to help a few students with the mother tongue.Did you have a chance to visit Europe it's such a wonderful continent...nearly as lovely as Asia!And finally dear yes you must visit lovely Japan.The people are so polite and the service you receive everywhere is wonderful definitely no scams....and the trains run exactly to time ha not like here!!! I still remember those hot Vietnamese Summer days I love warm weather but even for me it was hot hot hot!! With Blessings for your day.Steve

[@WhatThePho]

Thank you so much for sharing! I'm glad you had great experience of Vietnam. I haven't been to Europe but I'm aiming for next year or so. And yes, the weather was so so hot here in the summer haha. Please come back when Vietnam is open its border :)

[@carefulconsumer8682]

Don't forget the night market at the Truong Tien Bridge at night. Food to eat, art work, friendly people, young couples strolling, etc. Thanks for your great videos!

Hello Van ! Nice posting of video on Hue. It brings back memories of my trip there in 2017. Due to only a 2 day/1 night trip, I've only managed to visit the Imperial Palace & Thien Mu Pagoda. The palace compound was huge & take a lot of walking to see but was well worth it. The pagoda is nicely situated beside the Perfume River with breathtaking views. Should have stay an extra night to visit the other attractions. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed Hue & the scenic drive from Da Nang thru Hai Van Pass & Lang Co beach. The views are awesome. That trip was part of my Da Nang - Hue - Hoi An self planned visit. With proper planning, trips can be very smooth in Vietnam. Don't you agree?

[@WhatThePho]

Absolutely agree! I'm glad you saw Imperial Palace and Thien mu pagoda, they're both very beautiful!! Thank you for watching my video and sharing your experiences!

Good video em. Fun fact: the Nguyen Dynasty was the cause of French colonization and áo dài is a modern concept created in the 19th century. Most commoners wore Áo tứ thân, áo ngũ thân ( Direct descendant of Ao Dai) & áo tấc. Most nobles and royalties wore nhật bình & triều phục. - Việt Kiều from Canada.

I'm impressed with your ability to speak English so well in relatively short time.I can relate the tone when you speak English that's similar to the tone of Hanoi Vietnamese,which is clear and sweet.My father was from HN he left for S.Vn in 1954.I was born in S.Vn,but I still speak Northern Vietnamese ,many people said to me my voice is like Hanoi native;I hope so but I don't know for sure, perhaps someday this old man come to HN and you can tell me if I speak HN accent or not?

This is quite different from 1968 I viewed some walls from south of river doing road sweeps I have no real recollection of Vietnam other than the trees and hiking the hills. Of course occasionally we would meet the indigenous population more of exchanging small arms fire than a cultural exchange These are my memories of Vietnam it’s. of trees hills and streams Which limits you to line of sight most often That’s until the defoliants were applied. So my exposure to Vietnam and the culture is largely due to that This is a distinctly different country for me so the best parts of Vietnam will always be the hills and streams as almost all the birds and people are not there which means I was an alien on an extended paid excursion which went that year

[@eduardochavacano]

I did very little in Hue. If I could only turn back time. I had the best Spring Rolls in Hue. But I missed out on the thombs.
