Hi, Everyone
Greeting from a girl in VietNam
That is the first time I have written in the Pinmaple community and the second post in the Hive community. I saw a lot of posts about a lot of topics, and I asked someone what I should write and what topic I could write on my blog, I received a lot of advice from my friends so today I choose the Pimmaple community for my post. And the site I would like to introduce to you is Khai Dinh Tomb in Vietnam country. I hope all of you will be interested in this site.
INTRODUCTION
Khai Dinh Tomb is located at Thuy Bang commune in Hue city. Khai Dinh Tomb is the last mausoleum of the emperor of the Nguyen Dynasty. And this tomb of the Khai Dinh emperor.
DETAIL
I had to pass 127 steps to get to Thien Dinh Palace where the altar of King Khai Dinh was. The mausoleum is rectangular in shape and when I arrived I encountered 4 dragons scrolling from top to bottom right in front of the entrance to the mausoleum. I find that this dragon is more beautiful than the dragons that I encountered in the architecture of other dynasties in Vietnam such as Ly, and Tran. The dragon shows strength and majesty with its blue stone eyes and intricate carvings.
Behind the Dragon are two tower-shaped gate pillars that have the appearance of Indian architecture. I know that Khai Dinh Tomb is the most expensive and time-consuming mausoleum of the Nguyen Dynasty kings. From the outside, you will see that the mausoleum is smaller than other mausoleums and if you look outside it is like a cement block carved, but when you step inside you will see a big difference between Khai Dinh Tomb and other mausoleums. in Hue city. Stepping into the Mausoleum, I was met with a flash, new and modern. I was quite surprised when the outside mausoleum is cement, but inside the mausoleum is paved and decorated with small pieces of stone together and that is called the famous art of porcelain and crockery in Hue.
The ceiling is decorated by nine dragons coiled together in the clouds, they look very real.
And more special is that the only tomb of Khai Dinh mausoleum is confirmed to have the king's body lying in the mausoleum. The king's body was buried under the king's statue. Even the statue of the king is carved to look like a real person.
Khai Dinh Tomb is probably the most majestic mausoleum I have ever been to. I hope you will enjoy the architecture and motifs of the Mausoleum as much as I do.
Thank you for visiting my first post. And give me comments so I can write better next time.
