This was our last stop of the afternoon in Hue. Actually the tomb is just outside of town.
Emperor Thieu Tri was only on the throne for seven years (1841-1847) and never wanted to bother anyone with his death, so the tomb was constructed by his son in 1848.
Statues leading up to the tomb itself:
Tree with what looks like some sort of offerings.
Lotus ponds.
This is the actual tomb.
But I found the lotus pond to be prettier.
On the other side there is a temple with the funerary tablets for the Emperor and his wife.
