This morning after breakfast, we will head about 10 km out of the city, passing green rice paddy fields and small rivers on our way to  Thanh Toan (tile covered) Bridge, which was built in 1779. This is a gathering place for local people. After visiting the market nearby, we will also have chance to talk and have some fun with the locals. After a rest, we’ll visit Phu Cam Conical Hat Village where you can buy typical souvenirs of Hue. This afternoon depart on a boat trip up the Perfume River past some dreamy countryside and charming scenes of Vietnamese life to the Royal Tombs of the Nguyen Emperors. The Royal Tombs, with their vast, lovingly-tended botanical gardens, beautiful open air pavilions and numerous shrines, were to provide the seven Nguyen Emperors noble burials as well as comfortable afterlives. The tombs of Minh Mang and Tu Duc are the most elegant, while that of Khai Dinh is the most unusual, combining Western architecture with Vietnamese style. Continue to Thien Mu Pagoda, one of Vietnam’s oldest and most beautiful Buddhist temples. In a corner of the grounds, note the aged, pale blue Morris automobile, which transported a local monk to Saigon where he immolated himself in 1963 in protest against the anti-Buddhist laws of the Ngo Dinh Diem regime. Back to your hotel in the late afternoon. Overnight at the same hotel.
