Huế was the capital of Vietnam from 1802 to 1945. 

UNESCO-designated Complex of Huế Monuments is the main reason tourists visit.

I used the GPSMyCity app to walk the huge site. It didn’t work all that well. I probably should have simply hired their headphones guide.

Happily, I got there in time for the morning changing of the guard.

I took a LOT of photos over a couple of hours. Most tourists don’t leave the main attractions. I walked everywhere. 😀

Pho and Mango Smoothie overlooking the site.

The other thing I enjoyed in Hue was renting a bicycle and cruising the waterways.

A nice tourist stop.

I had another inexpensive private room in a hostel.
