Shopping and Citadel in Hue

Hue, Vietnam & Cambodia

We had a great day in Hue today. The morning was busy with photo stops of rice fields, farmers, water buffalo and lotus flowers. We arrived in Hue and visited the local market—you name it, they have it! However, the highlight of the day was definitely the citadel! It’s just an amazing place, much bigger than I expected. Everyone enjoyed it. Lunch was fabulous! The weather held so we were able to go out on the dragon boats and have a very local meal. The boats had ready made pjs, robes, silk tops, and pants laid out for us on when we boarded and it was a shopping frenzy. It’s safe to say we have all greatly contributed to the local economy. So fun!
