Overview
Hue traditional folk song is a variation of Hue royal court music and has been listed as an item of national intangible heritage. A visitor to Hue said that “A visit to Hue would not be complete without a boat excursion on the gentle Perfume River, or else you cannot feel the romance of Hue”.
This kind of music is performed on modest home stages or the Dragon boat on the Perfume river. Vocalists and instrumentalists are all dressed in “Ao Dai”, Vietnam’s traditional costume.
The performance of Ca Hue is highly recommended for both local people and foreigners. The melodies of Ca Hue stir people’s sounds with both sorrowful and delightful moods while the lyrics contain life stories.
In this short night tour, you have a chance to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere on the Perfume river and listen to Hue’s traditional folk songs by night to explore a unique Hue that no place has.
Traveling to Hue city, you should not miss this special show.
