The tombs of the three Nguyen Dynasty kings

An Lang is the resting place of three Nguyen Dynasty emperors: Duc Duc, Thanh Thai, and Duy Tan. Located on Duy Tan Street, An Cuu Ward, Hue City, it covers nearly 6 hectares. The mausoleum was built by Emperor Thanh Thai in 1899 to honor his father, Emperor Duc Duc. In 1954, Emperor Thanh Thai passed away and was reburied at An Lang alongside his father. Emperor Duy Tan died in 1945 in a plane crash in France. In 1987, his remains were brought back from France to Vietnam and interred at An Lang with his father (Emperor Thanh Thai) and grandfather (Emperor Duc Duc). After more than a century, the site has suffered significant damage and faces the risk of falling into disrepair.
