The flag tower seen from outside the Imperial Citadel. Hue, Vietnam
One of Vietnam’s seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the Imperial City of Hue. The Imperial City of Hue was a walled fortress and palace of the ancient city of Hue which was a capital city of the Nguyen Dynasty for 140 years date back from 1805 until 1945.
The place was planned to be built in 1803 and was constructed between the 27 years from 1805 to 1832, making it the most massive structure being built in the history of modern Vietnam involving thousands of workers, millions cubic meters of rock.
The Imperial City of Hue has a circumference of 10 kilometers (6.21mi) with the height of 6.6 meters (21.6ft) and 21 meters (68.9ft) thick with forts, accompanied by cannons, artilleries and ammunitions.
There are ten majestic gates leading to the Imperial City of Hue, which can be divided into two main parts excluding houses and mansions: The Citadel and The Forbidden City. The former served to protect the important palaces inside while the latter was where the emperor and the royal family stayed as well as the court’s workplace.
I love watching them enjoy life...

I've been running low on Monorail Monday shots, lately, so when the sky turned cloudy a couple weeks ago, I grabbed my camera and headed to the park with the goal of getting a few monorail shots between showers. I had been trying to get another shot from this location ever since getting a night shot from here last Spring, but the bushes had grown over a bit and it was only recently that the landscaping guys trimmed back the verge enough to open up this view again from the opposite side of the lagoon.

Happy Monorail Monday!

Conowingo Dam, MD - The two Cormorants popped up from under the water and were fighting over the fish. A Bald Eagle swooped in and the fish got away.
Great arms on the saguaro in this photo.
The left one: "Talk to the hand" :-)
Also cholla and organ pipe to be found here. The Organ Pipe National Monument close to the Mexican border is rich in cactus diversity and I liked it better than the Saguaro NP.
