In
Hue there are at least three areas of family memorial shrines. One is
southwest of Hue, one is east (near Thanh Toan Bridge), and another is
north, on the road that follows closely on the Perfume River. Here you
can see a few shots of the northern concentration, which continues along
the road for a couple miles.
What's
with the hard hat?
I
don't know the name of this clan shrine, so, for purposes of filing, we'll
call it the Yellow Perfume River Shrine. More
shots here.
One
of a few fabulous tombs in the northern cemetery.
Clan
memorial shrines line the road for a distance of about one kilometer .
Even
humbler clans honor their ancestors with shrines.
The
northern one kilometer of the road is like this.
And
then, at Thanh Phuoc village, where the Bo River meets the Perfume, it's
the end of the line.
