"De Nhat" - The Best
Massage Foot Outlet in
Hue

In my humble opinion, nightlife in Hue may not be as exciting as its counterparts such as Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, however, there are still activities for you to enjoy in the night. One such activity I would recommend is having a foot massage after a long day walk in this imperial city. A highly recommended foot massage joint is "De Nhat" Massage, located opposite the Temple Restaurant.

Highly recommended by the locals, the service is good. For 100,000VND (USD7), you get to enjoy a relaxing foot massage by the therapists. Though the foot reflexology session may be different from what you experience (in terms of techniques) in Singapore and Thailand, the 45-minute session will definitely enable you to relieve your tension and fatigue from your day walk in the imperial city.

After the massage, the therapists would also help you to wipe your foot with warm towels - weather in Hue is cool!

Hue is one of the best places to enjoy the Vietnamese New Year celebrations of Tet. One of the highlights is a midnight firework display. The fireworks are set off in front of the citadel on the north bank of the Perfume river, but best viewed from the Trang Tien Bridge or the south bank of the river, near the end of the bridge.

Wear what you like, but many of the locals are wearing their best new clothes because it is Tet.

	Cafe on Thu wheels: Thu good to be true, best bar in Hue!	Tip Rating:

Thu, in the flesh

Thu’s café (Tue is pronounced two) might be a little hard to find at first but its well worth the effort. The bar itself is a tiny place, but it works well with Thu’s style, which is ultra outgoing. You’ll be sure to make lots of friends here and Tue will make sure you’re with a great group if you come alone. I’m not usually a regular at any bar when I travel, but Tue had me back night after night, as I’m sure you’ll be. Make sure you drink a lot of the 50 cent Hue original beers and the food is great as well, so load up of some snakes. There are also lots of board games around the bar. Tue also organizes tours around the city, but I don’t how good they are.

Close by the river on Le Loi St the DMZ Bar is a lively bar popular with tourists and expats. The pool table dominates the main bar area and seemed to be always in use.

Apocalypse Now

A little out of the way and totally not worth the trouble. It isn't anywhere near the ones in Hanoi and HCMC. The music was far too loud and the people there were a little more aggressive than at other bars. I don't recommend this one.

Partying with the locals

The young local population don't have a whole lot to do in the small town of Hue. As a result, many look to the constant influx of tourists for amusement. It's a good chance for travellers and locals to come together for some night time fun.

DMZ Cafe and Bar

Two words: Pool table. Also this is a decent place to kick back and have a couple of wobbly pops while munching on something. The place gets pretty lively by 11pm and is open until 2am. Beer runs between 8,000 - 15,000 dong.

	Perfume river on a Dragon boat: Folksinging on the Perfume river

performers

A motorbike picks you up from your Hotel. On the dragon boat, you head out to the centre of the river, where they drop anchor. Five women sing, and there are 3 people playing instruments. I found the singing to be very harsh and didn't enjoy it at all. I have vietnamese music cds, and like them. Also, the lead lady introduced the songs in vietnamese to all the tourists, so we didn't know what they were singing about. Everybody puts a lighted candle which is a paper container in the river, its not 100's like advertised. At the end, you have to find your own way back to the Hotel. It cost $5us for approx 11/2hours, not worth it at all.
Would not recommend.

along the river... bar

Forget the happy hour bars... take a walk by the river in the new part of town... you'll mingle wiht locals and enjoy your night out with them... the farther you go from the hotel zone, the better. There will be plenty of street vendors selling food and the usual junk (basically just like at home) and you'll see hundreds of families just hanging about... sometimes sitting down for a drink in small bars... all very friendly.

No real action, just relaxing... unless the police comes along... within seconds every street vendor vanishes - and those who are not quick can see their merchandise or motorbike "taken" by the police.
