The Hue ancient imperial city plans to have areas surrounding Dai Noi (Imperial Citadel) illuminated and enhance lighting systems on walking streets along the Huong River.

Accordingly, Hue has installed about 4,000 LED light bulbs to increase luminous efficiency and save electricity. Up to 12,000 remaining bulbs need to be changed and 5,000 new ones will be added to the city’s parks, along the Huong river and new residential areas.

Hue recently launched a project to illuminate “Ky dai Hue” (Hue flag tower) with 1,000 LED light bulbs, which is part of activities to preserve and promote the historical value of the tower. The lighting system was installed surrounding the historical site in a modern style, aiming to create a highlight for the city’s tourism at night.

In addition, the Hue Monuments Conservation Center has carried out the re-enactment of cannon shooting, enabling tourists to contemplate one of the activities in the Nguyen Dynasty (1802-1945).

The project to lighting up Hue city was recently given a boost with EUR 2 million (about USD 2.6 million) sourced from Luxembourg’s energy and climate fund and EUR 200,000 from the local budget. Accordingly, around 22,000 LED light bulbs will be installed at the city’s public places.
