一个平凡女人的人生足迹: Day 24-25 : Vietnam's Hue 第24-25日: 越南北征之顺化篇

*first of all, I would like to apologize for the my broken English here. Please do not continue your reading if you are easily to get irritated by bad English, Thank you!

由于越南的签证只剩几天，并且我已厌倦了一直吃个不停、重复看一样的农田神庙，再加上文化、言语上的冲击，去顺化的旅途开始孤身只影了。

为了节省旅费，我选择了520000越南盾（25美元左右）的soft seater (软椅)，当然当时是非常懊悔的，因为从河内搭火车去顺化需13小时之久。不过最便宜的卧铺也要差不多33美金，8块美金可是可以买上一夜的住宿哦！以下网站有各国火车站的详细资料。

从这一天起我开始走路，背着两个背包，一步一步寻找目的地，一是为了去掉这20多天吃下的油脂；二顺便为了省钱，因为末日将至，我正盘算着从越南去吴哥欣赏末日降临。火车站走路到旅社30分钟，这次在网上订了Thanh Thuy Guest House,价钱7美元一晚。反正就是旅社，也没有什么期待，房间总算干净，老板也很好人。原本手机GPS可以带路，讨厌的三星从十多年前就开始永远有电池不够的缺陷。

Based on my tourist visa going to expiry soon, also kind of fed up of non-stop eating, non-stop familiar farming, temple’s scenery, plus some conflict of the communication, I was started travelling alone from Hue. For save more budget for the journey, this time I’d chosen the soft seater train seat which was 52000 VND (around 25 USD). The 13 hours journey made me kind of regret but the cheapest sleeping bed need to pay for 33 USD, I rather save up the 8 USD for accommodation. Here you can find out more for the train’s information and it is quite useful for worldwide travel too.

I was started to walk a lot with my 2 bags since Hue, the purpose was tried to throw out the fat I had been taken all this long, plus to save more money for coming tour. I was planned to go Angkor Wat after Vietnam, to see the doomsday there. The distance from Hue Railway Station to Thanh Thuy Guest House I booked online was around 30 minutes. The room was ok, clean, and the boss was nice too, for sure I did not expect 5 star service because it’s only took me 7 USD per night.

顺化是越南的古都，为皇帝时代的京城。当时最后皇帝——保大帝，不愿接受日本军队歼灭胡志明临时政府的建议，为保自国人民的性命而毅然接受胡志明放弃君主身份而退位。1945年，阮朝从此步入历史。

这次因为没有了朋友的电单车，自己又不会骑，唯有花了10块钱美金，上了一辆电单车德士。他是载了我去几个地方，也有几个神庙，神庙我就不写了，来来去去也是一样的。可能为了省车油费，很多著名的景点他都说入门票很贵。其实我也没什么时间，只打算在此地逗留1天，我也没所谓地去了他认为比较便宜的地方。

Hue is the historical city in Vietnam, and the Imperial City was here too. In 1945, The last emperor Bảo Đại abdicated and a communist government was established in Hà Nội. He was persuaded by Japanese to destroy the communist government but he objected to protect his people’s life.

I spent 10USD to hire a motorbike taxi to bring me around because I can’t ride motorbike. He told me some of the places are expensive so he only suggested some free or cheapest tourist spot to me. I accepted his offered because the limited of the time in this city, also to save more cost. There were a few temples we went and I decided to drop out from the blog because again, it’s just another temple and nothing excited to write about it.

1. Tomb of Khải Định 啟定陵

据说顺化有大大小小的陵墓群，有嘉隆陵、明命陵、绍治陵，嗣德陵、建福陵、同庆陵等，我只去了最有特色的啟定陵。啟定陵是越南阮朝第12位皇帝（最后第二）阮福昶（啓定帝）的陵墓。1920开始动工，啓定去世（1925年）前去了一趟法国，深受当地建筑文化的影响，就此融了合法国的色彩于其中国式的陵墓中。最后陵墓于1931 由其子保大帝完成。

入门票 55000越南盾。

Hue got many emperor’s tomb around, and I only went to this Tomb of Khai Dinh, which was more unique. Khai Dinh was the 12th emperor in Nguyen Dynasty, which was last second too. The construction started on 1920, and he decided to add in some French’s element after he visited France before he died. The construction completed by his son Bao Dai on 1931, after his death on 1925,.

Ticket: 55,000 VDN

2. 天姥寺 Thien Mu Pagoda

天姥寺位于顺化香江江畔，又名灵姥寺，拥有400年历史。就如一般寺庙一样，不过如果在顺化逗留长久的话，可以去看看。

入门免费

Thein Mu Pagoda located by Perfume River and with 400 years history. It’s similar as others temple in Vietnam, if you got time and not sure where to go, can go for a visit.

Free visiting.

3. 顺化皇城 Imperial City

顺化皇城依据北京故宫蓝图建设，不过范围小很多。我没去过北京，所以对这个迷你故宫还是有强烈的穿越感。这皇宫大部分已在美越战争时期被无情战火大量破坏，即使如此，走在荒凉的石阶上还是隐约感受到当时的士兵宫女们匆忙穿梭的影子。中间及右边的宫殿已经大量破坏，有关当局至今如火如荼地修补中，不知道十年后是否能回复故宫原状？我还是比较喜欢目前荒凉地缺陷美，修复后强烈的颜色总觉得抢夺了历史的朦胧光辉。

入门票 55000越南盾

Hue’s Imperial City built accordingly to the plan of the Beijing’s Imperial City. I have never been Beijing, so was quite impressed and was feeling strong of the past atmosphere. Most of the building had destroyed while American War, and the Tourism Department is trying to re build the destroyed part, wonder how will it look in 10 years later. Frankly speaking I still prefer the current scenery, the new painting will destroy the beauty of the historical.
