The Romantic Ancient Town of Hoi An

#tripblazers The Ancient Town of Hoi An used to be the trading port of Vietnam between the 15th till 19th century. Located 30km south of Da Nang, merchants especially from China and Japan will stopover here and trade their goods with the local Vietnamese, which is why you can observe several landmarks such as the Japanese Bridge, Hokkien Association, Cantonese Association, Confucius Academy etc. This entire town is lit up with very colourful lanterns across all streets within the premise. You also get to enjoy lovely local food and western cuisines, or chillout in a pub or juice bar. By 10pm, take a boat ride by the river and make a wish with a paper lantern and flow it fown the stream. It is a remarkable experience and will definitely come again.
