Hue attracts tourists with its heritage system

According to CNN, Hue is selected as a major tourist attraction because Hue is an ancient capital, where the last feudal dynasty of Vietnam existed. The system of heritages, mausoleums, pagodas…is still well maintained.  In addition, Hue is valued highly also by its poetic Perfume River flowing through the city, by its system of distinctive traditional handicraft villages,  by its unique culture,  and by its friendly people .
