Hue Garden Houses Halfday
The garden houses in Hue is a display of heritage of the lives of former aristocrats in Hue, as most garden houses have a connection with the Imperial Court. Some are descendents of royalty or mandarins; others received patronage from the royal family. See history before your eyes at An Hien garden house, situated 30 minutes out of town and originally the residence of Emperor Duc’s 18th daughter. The house is an excellent example of traditional Vietnamese architecture. Massive pillars support a large tiled roof, with the family altar in the middle, while a large rectangular lily-pond separates the windscreen and the house. Another great example of a garden house is the former home of Princess Ngoc Son, a classic structure with three bays and two wings. The highlight is a small artificial rock garden. The present owner also has a fascinating collection of artifacts and mementos from the days of the Empire. Enjoy lunch with Hue specialties prepared by the family at the home, surrounded by history.
