Day 181  Feb 1  2015  Hue Vietnam


Other than the train employees trying to scam us the rest  of the trip was uneventful; however the Vietnam train is not near as comfortable as the trains in Thailand.  We arrived in Hue at 9 am and took a taxi to our hotel.  Once we had showers we went for a walk to the Citadel and the Imperial City which used to contain the Forbidden Purple City which used to house various emperors concubines, maids and eunuchs.  Much of the Imperial City was destroyed in the Vietnam war.
