Early in the morning of National Day, September 2, on many central streets of Hue City (Thua Thien - Hue) such as Hanoi , Le Duan, Nguyen Hue..., a dense stream of vehicles moved one after another.
Among these, there are quite a few vehicles with out-of-province license plates of tourists visiting Hue. In particular, at relic sites that are open free of charge to Vietnamese people such as the Imperial City, Tu Duc Tomb, Khai Dinh Tomb, etc., the number of visitors is quite large.

Many tourists had to accept that it would take about an hour to get to the Hue Imperial City and they were stunned to see the number of people there. "Perhaps we have never seen such a huge number of people pouring into the Imperial City as today," said a tourist from Hanoi.

The number of visitors is quite large, along with the hot weather, so taking photos at tourist attractions this morning seems to be difficult for tourists who want to keep memories of their visit to Hue.
