After reviewing the fact file again, I find the most interesting fact to be that the entire square-shaped complex of Hue Citadel has a perimeter of nearly 10 km and is enclosed within outer walls that are 6.6 m high and 21.5 m thick. It's impressive to imagine the sheer scale of the construction and the amount of effort and resources that went into building such a massive structure.
