Halls of the Mandarins, Hue is located behind the Thai Hoa Palace. These are a pair of smaller halls used by mandarins to get ready for court ceremonies. Like all other historical buildings, these are too a magnificent mark of Hue architecture. Visiting Hue without have a look at these beautifully constructed halls would be an incomplete tour.

Halls of the Mandarins may be categorized by the superb tombs of the Nguyen Emperors, several extraordinary pagodas and the remnants of the Citadel, where the country's emperors once dwelt, reigned and entertained from.

The halls build a square, the fourth side of which was once a partition separating the more unrestricted part of the fortress from the emperor's personal residence which was the "Forbidden Purple City."

Inside the Halls of the Mandarins what you will notice and get mesmerized by is the ornate tiled interior. And from these pieces of art you will be able to get the essence of Vietnam's artistic cultural in its glorious past. The 19-20th Century capital of Vietnam under its final royal rule, Hue is a quiet and attractive city, home to some of Vietnam's most impressive feudal remnants, and Halls of the Mandarins are few of those wisely restored pieces of sculpture.
