Tomb of Emperor Thiệu Trị, Royal tomb in Huong Thuy district, Vietnam

The burial complex contains two main sections separated by 100 meters: the tomb area with lakes and ceremonial structures on the right, and the temple area on the left.

Emperor Tu Duc ordered the construction of this tomb for his father Emperor Thieu Tri, the third ruler of the Nguyen Dynasty, completing it within ten months in 1848.

The tomb features stone statues of horses, elephants, and civil servants, along with elaborate copper gates decorated with dragon motifs representing Vietnamese imperial symbolism.

Located 8 kilometers from Hue City, the tomb remains open daily from 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM, with admission tickets priced at 50,000 Vietnamese Dong for adults.

This imperial tomb distinguishes itself from other Nguyen Dynasty structures by facing northwest and incorporating rice fields and gardens instead of traditional defensive walls.

Part of: Imperial City of Hue
