At 97 Phan Dinh Phung Street, it faces south to the An Cuu River, also called the Loi Nong River.
 
 An Dinh Palace originally had about 10 different architectural elements such as a boat-landing site, main  gate, Trung Lap Temple, Khai Tuong Pavilion, Cuu Tu Dai Theater and animal cages.
 
 Today, due to the damage from wars and time, only three constructions remain - the main  gate, Trung Lap Temple and Khai Tuong Pavilion.
 
 The two-story main  gate is three lanes wide and decorated with terra-cotta and ceramic relief images.
 
 Behind the gate is the eight sided Trung Lap Temple which houses the life size copper statue of King Khai Dinh.
 
 The Khai Tuong Pavilion is behind the temple.
 
 This main  element of An Dinh Palace is made from new materials, with its architecture adapted from European castles.
 
 The three-story pavilion is meticulously decorated; the first floor contains beautiful murals.
 
 Together with other examples from King Khai Dinh’s dynasty such as the Khai Dinh Mausoleum, Kien Trung Pavilion and Hien Nhon Gate, the An Dinh Palace is typical of Vietnam’s neo-classical architecture.
 
 Due to the restoration of the Hue Royal Fine Arts Museum at Long An Palace, the museum’s exhibits have been transferred to An Dinh Palace.
 
 Museum visitors will have a chance to admire the Franco-Vietnamese artistic and architectural styles.
 
 The wall  and ceiling murals in the pavilion, which were painted with limestone paints, were restored by experts  from Germany and their Vietnamese  trainees from the Center for Hue Citadel Relics Preservation in 2003 and 2005.
 
 The restoration is still continuing in preparation for the Hue Festival, June 3-11.
