    Imperial Hotel, Hue

    April 13, 2017 in Vietnam ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

    picked up at your hotel before heading to Bach Ma National Park which has a diversity of
    flora and fauna as well as naturally beautiful landscapes to explore. In just one day in Bach Ma you can
    trek and discover the highlights of this mountain. Another interesting sight is the old villas that remain in
    the jungle despite being damaged in the American War and reclaimed by nature. During the war, the
    American Army used the summit as a helicopter-base and the area saw a lot of heavy combat,
    unfortunately destroying some parts of the forest.
    Once in Bach Ma, we will travel by car to the summit, on a sunny day, this is a great place for panoramic
    views of natural wonders including Cau Hai lagoon and Chan May port. Start hiking along to the path
    through the forest to the summit trail which takes you a few kilometers past the Bach Ma Morin at the
    terminus of the park road.
    The trail continues to a pavilion with 360-degree views of the surrounding area, usually mist shrouded
    and above the clouds. Back to Do Quyen waterfall for trekking along a path through dense jungle
    (1,5km). If they’re lucky, trekkers can see birds at close range along the foot trails where we will enjoy a
    picnic lunch. After an exciting day in Bach Ma, we will depart to Lang Co beach. With its gradually
    sloping, white sand beach, an average depth of less than 1m and the average temperature in the
    bathing season of 25°C, Lang Co is an ideal beach for tourists.

    Dinner at a very interesting back alley hotel which was very nice.
    Imperial Hotel, Hue-5 star? I dont think so. Foyer is nice, but the rest leaves a lot to be desired. Overpriced drinks, poor service, and a terrible breakfast. Rooms comparable to a 3 star if that. Dont bother. Find somewhere else to stay at a better price. Apparently used by all the government dignitaries when they come to Hue.
