Hoi An Old Town

Appreciating and understanding historic culture, style, and vietnamese local delicacies is when you visit the Hoi An Old Town in Vietnam. Hoi An is the most prominent attraction. Historically it was a trading port dating back to the fifteenth century: an important stop on the Silk Road and the most popular place to trade in Asia. Today, it has morphed into a retailing center that draws heavily from the traditional artisanship of the past, especially with clothes and leather goods and others. Walking around the Old Town you’ll see Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese and French traits in the various buildings. At its center you’ll find the poetic Thu Bon River peppered with little rustic boats and colorful lanterns edged by a variety of charming restaurants, cafes, shops and stalls. Make sure you go for an afternoon wander along its ‘walking’ streets and narrow lanes at some point during your stay. This requires an entrance fee.
