Thế Miếu, Royal ancestral temple in Imperial City of Hue, Vietnam.
The temple features traditional Vietnamese architectural elements with wooden pillars, decorative carvings, and a central courtyard surrounded by worship halls.
Emperor Minh Mang ordered the construction of The Mieu temple between 1822 and 1823 to honor the previous rulers of the Nguyen dynasty.
Nine ceremonial bronze urns stand in front of the temple, each dedicated to a different Nguyen emperor and decorated with natural motifs.
The temple opens daily from 7:00 to 17:00, and visitors need to wear clothing that covers shoulders and knees as a sign of respect.
The central urn, dedicated to Emperor Gia Long, displays 153 carved decorative elements depicting Vietnamese landscapes and cultural symbols.
