Hue (VNA) – Visitors to the Hue Imperial City, located in the central city of Hue, will enjoy free nighttime access from April 26 to May 1, in celebration of National Reunification Day and International Workers’ Day, according to the Hue Monuments Conservation Centre.
Visitors will be able to enter the site through Hien Nhon gate from 6:00 pm to 9:30 pm to explore Thieu Phuong garden and Phu noi vu (internal affairs office).

Additionally, holiday travelers will have the opportunity to visit the "Journey of Vietnamese Ceramics" exhibition, scheduled to open on April 26 at Kien Trung Palace, a highlight of the Summer Festival within the framework of the Hue Festival 2025. The event presents nearly 200 exceptional ancient pottery artifacts spanning Vietnam's history.
