Visiting the Homeland - Citadel - Forbidden City - Huế, Vietnam

Huế is a city in central Vietnam that was the seat of Nguyen Dynasty emperors and the imperial capital from 1802 to 1945.

We visited the 19th-century Đại Nội Citadel which is surrounded by a moat and thick stone walls. It encompasses the Imperial City, with palaces and shrines in the Forbidden Purple City that was once the emperor’s home.

Visiting the Homeland - Tomb of Emperor Tự Đức - Lăng Tự Đức - Huế, Vietnam

Visiting the Homeland - Tomb of Emperor Tự Đức - Lăng Tự Đức - Huế, Vietnam

Tomb of Tự Đức aka Lăng Tự Đức is located in Huế, Vietnam.

INTERESTING FACTS:

✔️Emperor Tu Duc enjoyed the longest reign of any monarch of the Nguyen dynasty, ruling from 1848-83.

✔️It took three years to build from 1864–1867.
✔️Although he had over a hundred wives and concubines, he was unable to father a son (possibly he became sterile after contracting smallpox).
✔️From 1866-1883, Emperor Tự Đức lived in the tomb's palace until his death.
✔️Despite the grandeur of the site and the amount of time Tu Duc spent here, he was buried in a different, secret location somewhere in Hue. To keep the secret safe the 200 laborers who buried the king were all beheaded after they returned from the secret route. To this day, the real tomb of Tu Duc remains hidden.

Name this dish that has a Famous City in the name!?

Mi Quang at Hue Oi

When was the last time you enjoyed a bowl of Mì Quảng?
.
Mì Quảng is an ideal noodle dish for warmer weather because the HOT SOUP doesn't need to fill your bowl fully which explains why Mì Quảng is widely POPULAR in the Quang Nam province (Da Nang) in Central Vietnam (where summer conditions are one of the harshest 🌡️).

Visiting the Homeland - Huế, VIETNAM: Nhà Hàng Bà Sửu

We dropped by Nhà Hàng Bà Sửu on our way to Đà Nẵng because we heard that this place serves one of the best Bánh Ướt Thịt Heo Quay. The "Thịt Heo Quay" aka Crispy Pork Belly was tender and the skin was extra crispy -- combined that with some chewy soft bánh ướt and fish sauce......makes this whole visit worth it!
