Hue

As always, scroll down for english.

Mi-a placut Hue. Foarte mult. Atmosfera mult mai relaxata decat Hanoi, oamenii extrem de amabili (hotelul ne-a redus pretul turului pt ca am comentat ca a fost prea grabit, la cafenea au luat mai putini bani decat credeam si ne-au oferit ceaiul). In general o atmosfera destinsa si mancare buna. Am vazut cetatea imperiala, partial inundata de ploile recente, superba), piata locala ( un imens labirint de orice marfuri isi poate inchipui cineva) si mormintele imperiale (mausolee imense care i-ar face inviduosi pe toti amatorii de palate din romania). De refacut.

I enjoyed Hue. A lot, a whole lot. It’s got a chilled, layed back vibe with welcoming people and great cuisine. Our hotel(Grace) was warm, welcoming and helpful, gave us maps and pointed us at the right restaurants. My highlight was the Imperial Citadel. Partially flooded and partially in ruins, it felt like a  post apocalyptic landscape from the 1800. My second highlight, the market, an amazing maze of …. everything that can be bought and sold: textiles, food, cigarettes, plastics, electronics and all sort of other stuff I could not name. For cultural reassurance we had a pizza and went to see Mockingjay at the Big Cinema. Ah, and we found cooked maggots at one supermarket.
