Inside the Purple Forbidden City, Huế

2018 Hue, Vietnam

The Purple Forbidden City formed the innermost, most restricted section of Hue's Imperial City, reserved for the Nguyen emperor and his household. Much of it was destroyed during the Vietnam War; this 2018 photograph shows part of the area as it survives today.
