The International Palm Society is aware that not all spouses are palm-obsessed which is another reason we choose fabulous hotels and great food (as we have for the Vietnam biennial). 
 

We are pleased to announce that the IPS has added an optional cultural afternoon in Hue.  At no additional cost, interested members are invited to visit the Forbidden Purple City (a UNESCO world heritage site) constructed under the Emperor Gia Long in 1804. Included will be a tour of the royal, walled, Imperial City and a dragon boat trip on the Perfume River to visit the historic Thiên Mu Pagoda (1601). 
 

please register now, only five spots remain for the Vietnam biennial.
