Review:
In planning for his eventual demise, the 12th emperor of the Nguyen dynasty, Khai Dinh, spent eleven years building his final resting place. When he died in 1925, he was buried in a lavish tomb that contained a golden effigy of himself.
Visitors will be able to see the many intricate details in the tomb’s architecture, which fuses Chinese, Vietnamese, and European Gothic elements. There’s also some impressive majestic stone elephants, warrior statues, and dragons scattered at the tomb entrance as well as designed glass and porcelain decorations on the walls. The Tomb of Nguyen Emperor Khai Dinh is an extremely popular site for tourists and can be found in many tours offered. The Tomb of Nguyen Emperor Khai Dinh Map
