3. Huong River
Stretching across the ancient capital is the Huong River. The peaceful, bustling river, drifting silently, bending itself through the famous landmarks of Hue city.
The experience of Hue tourism is self-sufficient and there are countless ways to admire the beauty of Huong River: watching the river from Thien Mu Pagoda, going to a dragon boat on the river, or listening to Hue songs on the river at night … Each experience is like a private image special of this river.
Also a symbolic image of the city, Trang Tien bridge crossing the Huong River is also something that Hue people are always proud of. The bridge was built more than 200 years ago, originally just a normal rattan material but then built by the French into a six-span iron bridge now.
If you have a chance to travel to Hue in the summer, do not miss the best time of Trang Tien Bridge – when the red phoenix blooms, it dips into the inherent peaceful setting.

5.Thien An hill – Thuy Tien Lake
Just emerging not long ago in the Hue tourism experience, Thuy Tien Lake became a new check-in place in Hue, especially attracting young people to explore. Located near Thien An hill – the hill is greened by pine forest like Da Lat, Thuy Tien lake has an abandoned amusement park. The entire 50-hectare campus with many fun items has sunk into the wild, covered with moss, degraded is the point of “fighting” the brave guests.
