Totally worth checking out! Even if history isn't your thing, the scenery is gorgeous and there are so many cool, huge buildings to see. Seriously, plan at least 3 hours – you'll want the time to soak it all in.

Cổng Ngọ Môn is the main gate to the Imperial City of Hue, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the former capital of Vietnam's Nguyen Dynasty. It is one of the most iconic and historically significant structures in the entire complex.

The main entrance to the Imperial City is the Ngo Mon Gate, which faces the Flag Tower. The central path with its yellow doors and the bridge over the lotus pond was just for the emperor. Everyone else had to use the gates on the sides and walk around the pond. On top of the gate, there's the Ngu Phung Pavilion; you can't miss the huge drum and bell up there. It's cool that the gate's name and general look are the same as the first gate of the Forbidden City in Beijing. This is also where the emperor would appear for big events, especially to announce the lunar calendar. And get this: the Nguyen dynasty actually ended right here on August 30, 1945, when Emperor Bao Dai gave up his power.

My first visit after 2009. it’s a nice place, many houses are rebuild, a good mix of old and new. The entrance is not the exit! WARNING: be careful at the ticket counter. Only cash no card, the lady try to keep all my money, no change.

Grand entrance into the Imperial City. The upper level has great views and wonderful historical relics. Definitely worth the easy climb from the interior side of the gate.

The Meridian Gate is an impressive and majestic entrance to the Imperial City of Hue. Its grand architecture, intricate details, and historical significance make it a must-visit. Standing before it, you can truly feel the legacy of the Nguyen Dynasty. It’s a perfect starting point to explore the rich heritage of the citadel. Great spot for photos and soaking in the imperial atmosphere!
