Mausoleum of Emperor Minh Mang

After lunch, we keep doing the Hue Tour from Da Nang. As you know, all the emperors of the Nguyen dynasty thought that this life is just a temporary life. When you passed away, you would live a real life. So what you need in this life, you would need in the after-life. So the first thing they did when they first came to the throne is to order the Fengshui tellers to find the perfect Fengshui places to build the tombs. Please remember it, everything inside the tombs has never been used in the past, only for their afterlife.
The first place is the Minh Mang Tomb, the second emperor of the Nguyen Dynasty. Our tour guide will tell you the fabulous emperor’s biography and a scary secret inside his beautiful royal tomb.
