Minh Mang Tomb

The second tomb on our circuit was that of Minh Mang who was the 2nd ruler of the Nguyen dynasty, from 1820 to 1840. He was one of the most successful emperors, having enlarged the country to its fullest size, and establishing most of the institutions and government functions despite his relatively short reign. This is why it draws plenty of Vietnamese tourists who admire him and history buffs.

The tomb is a perfect combination between architecture and landscape, with magnificent buildings set among extremely pretty hills, lakes and gardens.Les mer
