Hue Reopens Imperial City and Heritage Sites After Floods

A Fresh Start for Hue After the Floods

After days of heavy rain and flooding, Hue is open again.
On the morning of November 4, the Hue Monuments Conservation Center announced that all major attractions within the Complex of Hue Monuments had officially reopened.

This is a hopeful sign for Hue’s tourism industry and for travelers who love the ancient charm of Vietnam’s former capital.

Historic Sites Welcome Visitors Back

After cleanup and repairs, many of Hue’s famous landmarks are ready for visitors.
The Imperial City (Dai Noi), Ngo Mon Gate, and several royal tombs have reopened.

On reopening day, the Imperial City welcomed its first international visitors from Malaysia. Their arrival marked the return of global travelers after the storms.
Soon after, groups from the UK, France, and other countries also arrived to explore Hue’s royal architecture and tranquil gardens.

Restoration and Safety Efforts

The floods damaged a 15-meter section of the Imperial City’s wall near Dang Thai Than Street.
Some Bat Trang brick walkways also cracked and lifted after being underwater for days.

The Hue Monuments Conservation Center quickly fenced off the damaged areas and installed warning signs to protect visitors.
Restoration teams have begun repairing the wall and reinforcing the Ngoai Kim Thuy Lake embankment to prevent erosion and ensure long-term stability.

Improving Conditions for Travelers

By November 4, the Huong (Perfume) River and Bo River had both dropped below danger levels.
Streets and neighborhoods across Hue dried out quickly.
Daily life has returned to normal, creating ideal conditions for tourists to explore again.

Hue Remains a Safe and Welcoming Destination

The quick return of international travelers shows Hue’s resilience and lasting appeal.
As Vietnam’s former imperial capital, Hue blends culture, architecture, and history in a way few cities can match.

Local authorities are now working with travel agencies to promote Hue as a “safe, friendly, and beautiful destination.”
This effort aims to boost tourism and welcome even more visitors by the end of 2025.

A Symbol of Renewal

The reopening of Hue’s heritage sites is more than a tourism milestone.
It reflects the strength and unity of a community determined to protect its cultural treasures.

Visitors can now admire the timeless beauty of Hue’s royal monuments and witness the spirit of a city that rises stronger after every challenge.
