Huong River is a symbol of Hue, and a 4-hour Dragon Boat cruise along its waters will take to you to well-known pagodas, temples, tombs and small fishing villages. Named after the scented medicinal plants and flowers which grow along its banks, Perfume River is formed by springs named Ta Trach and Huu Trach (Left and Right Tributary) which meet at Bang Lang Junction. The cruise takes you 30 kilometers from Bang Lang to Thuan An Estuary and back again, just in time for a lovely sunset.
