In the afternoon, the journey through imperial Hue continues with a focus on the southern bank of the river - the peaceful and impressive sepulchres of Emperors Tu Duc and Khai Dinh. The tombs will reveal to you some secrets about their dwellers, the Nguyen kings. The first tomb, the one dedicated to Tu Duc's, is located in a narrow valley in Duong Xuan Thuong village. It is one of the most beautiful works of royal architecture of the Nguyen dynasty. This is followed by the tomb of Khai Dinh, 10 km outside of Hue.
