I think this sums it up ...

Ho Dynasty lasted just seven years (1400-1407), a mere drop in the ocean of Vietnam's turbulent history.

Secondly, the citadel is empty.

That's right -- no palaces, no temples, no monuments -- just four walls surrounding nothing but farmland.

However, according to UNESCO, the citadel represents "an outstanding example of a new style of Southeast Asian imperial city."

Not only that but if UNESCO designates this as a world heritage site it will put dozens of farmers out of business. Oh but they don't care!
