Hue

---

So I got into Hue on the overnight bus. The weather in Hue is bad. It's surrounded by mountains, so they trap humidity. I was kind of tired, and since it was hot and humid, I found a hotel with a pool and spent the whole day by the pool, chatting with other travelers. Next day, I took a boat tour. Hue is a former imperial capital, so besides the Imperial old city, there are numerous Imperial tombs. The tombs are very elaborate and are very big. I opted to see just two. One was old and one from the begining of 20th century. After, I went to see the Imperial city. Most of it was destroyed during the French war, but the gate and one of the palaces is untouched and are very impressive.
Since I am running out of time I decided to go to Hanoi to do Halong Bay.
