The mausoleum is built on the top of the hill. The statues of the hundred civil and military officers stand on both sides. The style of the combination of China and the West is very distinctive. The three-dimensional walls of the mausoleum painted with colored tiles and glaze are still very beautiful. This is also the most luxurious building seen in Vietnam. It is worth seeing. I don't believe it. If it is true, it must be a giant in Vietnam. Haha. Sure enough, he was a magnificent emperor.

    Mausoleum of the 12th Emperor Khai Dinh, one of the most grand among all with Neo classical, Gothic and Baroque design.

    Characteristic, rich and noble performance, Chinese and Western combination! ! This imperial tomb is very different from China or his ancestor's tomb 100 years ago. Vietnam wedding photos also have new people taking pictures here. I really can't think of it.

    The last stop in Hue, hurrying to arrive at 4:30, Vietnam in December was dark and early, and I could only visit in a hurry. The scale of Qiding Mausoleum is not large, and it is the mausoleum of Qiding, the father of the last emperor of Vietnam, Baoda. The style is combined with Chinese and Western styles, with mosaic wall decorations, which are extremely exquisite. The Shinto is dressed in the official uniform of the Shu Dynasty, which often appears on postcards.

    It's a little far from Hue city, so rent a tour, motobike or bicycle. The appearance is quiet with stones turned black due to the influence of nature. However, the inside of the building is gorgeously decorated. It is a decoration that is influenced by France and fuses Chinese and Vietnamese cultures. I think it's very worth going.

    Located 15 kilometers south of Shunhua City, on the edge of Xiangjiang River, you can find a motorcycle from the city for about $4-5 to go back and forth, or you can rent a boat to Xiangjiang River. It is suggested to visit the Ming Ming imperial mausoleum and Side imperial mausoleum together. At the entrance, there is a row of magnificent Dragon-Carving staircases leading directly to the front yard of the imperial mausoleum. On the platform, there are stone statues such as hieroglyphs, horses and hundred civil and military officials. A stone tablet engraved in Chinese stands in the middle of the building. It is a memorial article for the emperor of Baoda in memory of his father Qiding. On the platform above the mausoleum there is a life-size bronze statue of Qiding. The interior floor of the mausoleum is covered with colorful glazed tiles. On the wall, there are giant Xianglong murals. On the left and right sides of the inner gallery, there are colored murals made of tile and broken glass. They tell different stories. Although small, it is the most exquisite of all the imperial mausoleums. It has three layers, one layer higher than the other. There are two rows of sculptures at the entrance, which often appear on postcards in Vietnam.

    Qiding imperial tomb is the smallest of Hue imperial tombs, but undoubtedly the most distinctive: Qiding imperial tomb is more modern, so the architectural style is also a combination of Chinese and Western, quite a bit of the taste of Yuanmingyuan architecture, and other imperial tombs are basically Chinese style. There are more tourists here than the Suide Mausoleum, especially the tour groups like to bring here. The layout of the imperial mausoleum is on the mountain, the steep steps go up, and there are stone people standing on both sides of the platform on the first floor. It is a check-in point for net reds. Continue to go up is the main building. The mausoleums inside the main building are even more gorgeous, and the large number of mosaic art is lingering. The small hall next to the mausoleum has some artworks, watches, swords, etc. sent by the French, reflecting the king and the history of the country at that time. A package ticket can be purchased with Hue Palace, which is cheaper than a separate visit.
