HUẾ
Hue is the city of reminiscence and nostalgia. Imbrued with the cultures and the legacy of the Nguyen dysnaty ( the last dynasty of Vietnamese feudal era) in the form of palaces and old architectures: The Hue citadel, the royal tombs of the kings, the Thien Mu Buddhist Pagoda, etc..... Below is a collection of the ancient and poetic Hue through 35mm film that I captured from my trip to Hue in May 2021
Roll used: Kodak Gold 200
THE MAUSOLEUM OF EMPEROR TU DUC
The mausoleum of Tu Duc Emperor is known by its great beauty, its enchanting natural setting that reflects the romanticism of the ruler.
THIEN MU BUDDHIST TEMPLE
The Thien Mu Temple is a historic temple in the city of Hue in Vietnam. Its iconic seven-story Phuoc Duyen pagoda is regarded as the unofficial symbol of the city, and the temple has often been the subject of folk rhymes and ca dao about Hue.
HUONG RIVER
The Imperial City is a walled enclosure within the citadel of the city of Huế, the former imperial capital of Vietnam during the Nguyễn dynasty. It contains the palaces that housed the imperial family, as well as shrines, gardens, and villas for mandarins.
