The tomb of Emperor Tu Duc is one of the imperial tombs of the Hue monument complex, a UNESCO site in central Vietnam. The Tiqets ticket (read on 5 November 2026) is an entry to the tomb, booking fees included; transport, meals and drinks are not included, and the price was not displayed on the page read. Several travel guides give 150,000 VND for an adult, a figure our Hue guide also uses; check it before you go. From Hanoi, see Hanoi to Hue by train.

The tomb beside a lake
Our Hue guide describes it as the most romantic of the imperial tombs, beside a lake. Allow about 1 hour on site.
The combined ticket
One guide gives 420,000 VND for the Imperial City, Tu Duc's tomb and Khai Dinh's tomb, valid for 2 days (unofficial price, to be confirmed).
On the road from Da Nang
If you come from Da Nang or Hoi An, see the Hai Van Pass.
Practical info
Tips
- Non-refundable and non-reschedulable ticket (terms read on 5 November 2026). On the booking page the access section wrongly shows the address of another site, outside Hue: the place to visit is Tu Duc's tomb; ask your accommodation or driver for the exact address. The tombs are spread along the river: a driver, a motorbike or a guided excursion is simplest.
How to get there
The imperial tombs are spread along the river, outside central Hue. From the centre, take a taxi or a ride-hailing app (see Grab and taxis in Vietnam).
