Ho Dynasty Citadel attracts many tourists

The Ho Dynasty Citadel in the central province of Thanh Hoa has attracted an increasing many tourists since it absolutely was recognised as a World Cultural Heritage site.

A total of 11,000 guests came to the position in the initial six months of this year, a pointy increase compared to the figure of 2011, at 16,000. The main attraction is that the gigantic stone citadel was built six centuries ago, which is the only built by stone in Vietnam tourism. It's still intact via ups and downs in history.

Blocks of stone used to create the walls of the citadel had an average dimension of 2.2m x 1.5m x 1.2m and weighed an average 20-25 tonnes. Some of them were 4.2m x 1.7m x 1.5m and 5.1m x 1m x 1.2m with the largest weighing up to 26.7 tonnes. The larger blocks were laid below the smaller ones. This was seen as an achievement in construction architecture, using such massive stone blocks that haven't been found in alternative imperial cities.

The rock web site in An Ton Mountain, Vinh Yen commune, Vinh Loc district, that equipped stone for the building of the citadel, and the Nam Giao worship platform, that were built of solely tiny blocks measuring 40cm-50cm x 30cm or 40cm x 20cm-30cm, additionally draw several tourists.
