Popis

The grounds of the Imperial City are protected by fortified ramparts 2 kilometers by 2 kilometers, and ringed by a moat. The water in the moat is routed from the Huong River (Perfume River) through a series of sluice gates. This enclosure is the Citadel (Kinh th?nh). Inside the Citadel is the Imperial City (Ho?ng th?nh), with a perimeter wall some 2.5 kilometers in length. Within the Imperial City is the Purple Forbidden City (T? c?m th?nh), a term similar to the Forbidden City in Beijing. Access to the innermost enclosure is restricted to the Nguy?n imperial family.
