The Huế Museum of Royal Fine Arts shows objects of the Nguyễn court in Long An Palace, a wooden hall built in 1845 under Emperor Thiệu Trị and re-erected on its present site in 1909. Founded in 1923, the museum keeps about 9,000 royal objects, among them gold, porcelain, Huế enamel, court costume and furniture, with bronze cannons in the garden.
The Imperial City of Huế is the walled royal enclosure inside the citadel of Huế, capital of the Nguyễn dynasty. Begun under Emperor Gia Long in 1804 and enlarged by 1833, it holds palaces, temples, gardens and gates such as the Ngọ Môn. Heavily damaged in the Indochina Wars, it is part of the Complex of Huế Monuments, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is being restored.
Thiên Mụ Temple is a Buddhist temple on Hà Khê hill above the north bank of the Perfume River, about 5 km upstream of Huế's citadel. Founded in 1601 by the Nguyễn lord Nguyễn Hoàng, it is marked by the seven-storey Phước Duyên tower of 1844; the grounds hold a bronze bell cast in 1710 and the car that drove Thích Quảng Đức in 1963.
