Tour the Hue Royal Palace in Hue Vietnam with TRIPPED! The Hue Royal Palace is easily the biggest tourist draw in Hue but a month into the trip the Diemers are feeling a bit burnt out on ancient temples and ruins. They have also discovered the the majority of tourists are just running around taking selfies in front of ancient relics, so they join in on the fun and save the learning for another time.

Afterwards, they realize that about after a month on motorbikes and dealing with Vietnam weather for the past two weeks, that maybe everyone is a little sick of the road and the rain and seeing more temples so head south back to Hoi An to spend Christmas and catch the Hoi An Lantern Festival.

Of course, this means that the Diemers get a second go at doing the Hai Van pass on motorbikes, this time, with less rain.

TRIPPED splurges on hotel accomodations at $33 a night for two people (including breakfast of course!) and stays in the Tra Que area of Hanoi, close to beautiful herb gardens and just a few minutes via motorbike outside downtown Hoi An.
