The Flag Tower

Sanam Luang in front of the Hue Palace Along with a large fortress with a distinctive flagpole

There are lots of interesting sites around the citadel, where the big Vietnamese flag tower is based. The entire Hue is rich in culture and ancient buildings. The citadel city is alive during the day and during the night, where one finds lots of restaurants, fruit markets and rickshaw drivers. The entry to the citadel is free, however, the fees are chargeable to the historic sites where you'll learn about the Royal family that use to live here. You may want to rent a bicycle to ride around the town, to take few photos of many pagodas, or while admiring many green landscapes and parks around the city. Hue is fairly green, with lots of parks where you can walk or even view the big river which flows through the middle of the town. I would also recommend shopping at the local street markets, as there areany of them around and where one can purchase many local fruits or fresh coconut. Not to far from Hue is a hot spring, while you can also take a ride or a taxi to the beach.

Just opposite the Daneiwu Gate of Hue Imperial City, 33 meters high. There are three floors in total. It is the most important landmark in the country gate during the Sui Dynasty, and now only has historical role, and the big flag platform has been moved to Hanoi.

The Imperial City Banner is located next to the main entrance of the castle, and the tower is a landmark. The flag tower is three floors high and can be seen from quite a distance. It is located at the entrance to the castle, where it used to be a place of many communications and decrees, and beside the tower there are nine cannons symbolizing the Empire, which is the starting point for visiting the Forbidden City.
