Huế - the land of romantic, dreamy, poetic, a legacy domain incomparable beauty of a very private, very sweet. Before arriving in Huế, I cannot imagine a poetic ancient capital will exist between modern times. With the lively, noisy, boisterous constantly in Hanoi and Hồ Chí Minh City, I suddenly worried for small and romantic city seemed only appear in poetry, music, painting and photography image...
Then I came to Huế. Huế city welcomes me as I look at Huế through the pictures, poetry ... Peaceful, poetic to strange, peaceful Huế from the scene to people. From the gentle, discreetly smile, behind the brim of the girl’s conical hat of Huế who was riding the bicycle on the street to the kindhearted restaurant hostess...
Huế city has the gentle Huong River, Ngự Mountain with pine-tree withstand heavy rain and windstorm. Besides, it’s also famous for the ancient citadel of our country – Huế Citadel – where witnessed how many changes of the rulership of our country, ups and downs. Huế tombs save thousands of monuments of the King. There has Thiên Mụ Pagoda where the bell has been ringing from thousand years ago to thousands of years later.
Huế makes everyone who comes here suddenly walk slowly, talk tenderly, watch and think more ... Perfume River - quiet, tolerant, gentle - like a lady who is clean and free from the dust of the world. And the people of Huế are also gentle and open-minded. In the bright sunshine, golden as the honey of the summer, I watch the river from the steps of Thien Mu Pagoda, Perfume River has seductively beauty by the blue as the jade, by embracing the shadow of the life along the riverside.
Huế is famous for its sad and impressive beauty. It is as deep as you catch the sunset on Tam Giang lagoon, about 15 km from Huế city. It is a pleasure to take a boat ride in the midst of an immense wave, occasionally catching up breezy winds. In the late-afternoon light, you will be overwhelmed by the dark purple lacquer. It is a rare purple sunset that inspired the poetry, music, photography, and left in the hearts of visitors an incurable feeling of missing…
And there’s much more than those in Huế. Unluckily, I didn’t have much time to stay in Huế. I haven’t try the delicious food (royal style) and enjoy all the beauty here. But it’s not really unlucky. Maybe it’s the chance for me to return here again. Will you come with me?
