Azerai La Residence, Hue, a historic riverside hotel in central Vietnam, is offering guests curated tours that delve into the region’s imperial past and cultural landmarks, including several UNESCO World Heritage sites.
The hotel’s signature “Full Day in Hue” experience begins with a tranquil boat ride on the Perfume River to Thien Mu Pagoda, an iconic seven-story structure dating back to 1601. The pagoda, considered a symbol of Hue, sets the tone for a journey through the city’s rich historical legacy.
Guests are then transported by private car to the Imperial Citadel, the former seat of the Nguyen dynasty that ruled from 1802 to 1945. The day continues with visits to two royal tombs: Emperor Gia Long’s secluded burial site and the ornate Khai Dinh’s Tomb, noted for its fusion of Vietnamese and European architectural styles.
To conclude the tour, guests may choose to enjoy an authentic royal dinner within the walls of the Imperial City, hosted at the Royal Theater of Vietnam—a unique cultural experience designed to evoke the grandeur of Vietnam’s dynastic past.
