Der Name ‘Hue’ bedeutet Harmonie. Anmutig spiegelt
sich die Stadt in den Wassern des Parfüm-Flusses, träumt im Schatten
alter Paläste und anderer kaiserlicher Gebäude. Von 1802 bis 1945
war es die alte Hauptstadt der letzten Kaiserdynastie, der Nguyen. Hue hat
340.000 Einwohner auf einer Fläche von rund 6.777 Hektar. Als von der
UNESCO anerkanntes Welterbe der Menschheit zieht Hue mit seinem Zauber,
der für ihre prunkvolle Bauweise berühmte Zitadelle, den Palästen,
Tempeln und den kaiserlichen Grüften, die von einer großen und
faszinierenden Vergangenheit zeugen, jeden in ihren Bann. Die Stadt war
nicht nur für über ein Jahrhundert die von den Kaisern errichtete,
politische Hauptstadt, sondern bestimmte auch die kulturelle Entwicklung
des Landes. Diese Stadt ist "ein Meisterstück urbaner Baukunst". |

Tourism - Thien-Mu-Pagode
The name of the pagoda comes from a legend: a long ago, an old woman
appeared on the hill where the pagoda stands today. She told local
people that a Lord would come and build a Buddhist pagoda for the
country's prosperity. Lord Nguyen Hoang, on hearing that, ordered
the construction of the pagoda of the "Heavenly Lady". |

Hue was unified Vietnam's capital from 1802 to 1945, during the rule
of the emperors of the Nguyen Dynasty. It was not only the political
but also the cultural and religious centre. The imperial citadel used
be comparable to Beijing's forbidden city, but most of it was destroyed
during the bloody fighting which followed the Tet offensive in 1968.
It is still an interesting sight, as a increasing number of buildings
are being restaured. The visit can be combined with a cruise along
the nonchalant Perfume river. On the way, you'll pass the Thien Mu
pagoda, of which the octagonal tower is one of the most famous buildings
of the country. At night, traditional music concerts on a boat drifting
along the river are delights to remind that Hue is considered to be
Vietnam's cultural and artistic center. The complex of Hue monuments
is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. |
