Enjoy the scenery by cyclo
The first time tourists visit Thua Thien-Hue, it is impossible to miss the rare experience of cycling around and enjoying the scenery of the whole city from Truong Tien Bridge. Tourists can walk around the city center to learn about the daily life of Hue people here. Hue city is not too big and noisy, so it is easy for you to find your way and explore here.
Hue city is small, but if you only visit Hue in one day, maybe you will not be able to go to all the ideal places. Using a cyclo, you can not only immerse yourself in peaceful space but also slowly explore each of the streets with an ancient beauty through the dusty layer of the past downtown. The trip will take you to visit cultural and historical sites such as Dai Noi, Khai Dinh Tomb, Minh Mang Tomb, Tu Duc Tomb, Thien Mu Pagoda, Dong Ba Market.
On the way, you can choose to stop by any attractive tourist spot and reward yourself with a few unique flavored snacks which are only be sold here, such as bun bo Hue (Hue-style beef rice noodles), spring rolls, bloating fern-shaped cake, etc. You can visit some antique houses selling souvenirs such as bracelets, oil paintings, clothes in the style of Hue people.
Visit Dong Ba market at the end of autumn
Dong Ba is unlike any other market in our country. Here, Hue people trade all kinds of items from imported to self-produced to meet the supply and demand of the market. One late autumn day, visitors to Dong Ba will be surprised by the clean, neat market like a self-governed supermarket but it will give you a feeling of proximity.
Dong Ba is a market of retail purchasers in Hue but quite busy and crowded. The items traded in the Dong Ba market are diverse, such as seafood, handicrafts, clothing, brocade, silk, fine jewelry, etc. Do not worry about the price because this place is not too hard on visitors.
Coming to Dong Ba, in addition to hand-choosing and shopping for souvenirs for their loved ones, tourists also enjoy many famous specialties in the market at affordable prices.
It would be a regret if visitors come to Hue without ever trying to choose an ao dai for themselves. Since ancient times, Hue people have always been famous in literature because of the image of a girl wearing pink long dresses, holding a conical hat, standing by the Perfume River.
Enjoy specialties
Hue city not only is famous for historical sites, people or harmonious natural but also attracts visitors by the famous specialties across the country. Hue specialties are extremely diverse and rich, eye-catching not only in appearance but also fascinating in the flavor of their own.
If you have ever traveled through the regions of the country or internationally, you will probably find the deliciousness of each Hue dish is only due to the talented hands of the chef here. Here there are many famous dishes throughout the world such as beef noodle soup, Hen rice, rice dumpling cake in Phu Loc village, banh uot in Truoi village, spring rolls, nam cake, alley tea, Nam Pho rice spaghetti soup cake, etc.
Explore Lang Co beach
The experience at Lang Co beach like flying a kite or cycling, watching the landscape and trying to make salt with fishermen, or riding a motorbike observing the Hai Van Pass will bring remarkable memories for visitors. Not only the beach, Lang Co also has many majestic mountains and beautiful lagoons. Fishing and dropping nets in Lang Co Bay attracts many tourists. On the white sand of Lang Co beach, clear out and let your soul fly with the kite flying and watching the blue sky. Lang Co is more than 70 km from Hue city.
Lang Co is a destination for sea lovers when coming to Hue. After visiting the familiar tombs, you can take the time to explore the interesting things of Lang Co Bay.
Lang Co is small with one side of the sea, one side of the lagoon and the mountains but there are many playing spots.

The majestic pass is a popular tourist destination for tourist buses. From above, the panorama of Lang Co is picturesque when the sunset lets go of the blue bay.
In addition, you can also choose to explore the two very interesting tours in Lang Co or visit Bach Ma National Forest (about 30 km from Lang Co).
Listen to Hue royal court music on the Perfume River
Coming to Hue ancient capital, in the evening, visitors take a boat on the Perfume River to listen to the son and, the dance will be a wonderful experience at the end of the day. You can buy tickets to the boat and enjoy the charming scenery and listen to the sweet, deep Hue voice. Hue music is a traditional genre of Vietnamese music. Tourists participating in the program are presented at Truong Tien Bridge to buy tickets and get off the Dragon boat to enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Perfume River and listen to Hue folk songs.
