Hoi An Ancient Town - China-Vietnam Travel

🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳Hoi An Ancient Town🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳 The ancient city with great contrast between day and night Hoi An, located about 30 kilometers south of Da Nang, was an important and busy trading port in the 17th and 18th centuries. Merchant ships from China, Japan, the Netherlands, India and other places gathered here. Therefore, many cultures are integrated in Hoi An. Hoi An Ancient Town shows the daily life of civilians. The preserved buildings such as docks, wells, temples, bridges, etc. reflect the rise and fall of the ancient town. On both sides of the Thu Bồn River, which leads from the Hoi An Ancient Town to the Hoi An Night Market Bridge, there are hundreds of small boats with colorful lanterns rowing by at night, like the phantoms of flowing colors, creating a dreamy and magnificent scene for the entire river. It is very romantic and charming, which opened my eyes and amazed me! It's worth coming to appreciate this feast of flowing light and shadow! It is highly recommended that you choose to dine at a restaurant on the second floor on either side of the canal when traveling, choose a restaurant that you like and has a good atmosphere, or choose a lively beer bar and enjoy the atmosphere and scenery of Hoi An Ancient Town at night from the second floor. After eating, you can stroll around the old street and eat some local snacks, such as barbecued meat wrapped in lettuce or simple rice noodles by the river, and then take a boat to take pictures of the shops, people and tourists on both sides of the street from a different angle in the canal. In addition, the food in the fifth picture is another very interesting delicacy that I experienced in Vietnam this time. However, because the owner of the snack stand does not speak English well and I cannot speak Vietnamese, I have no way to understand the name of this dish. This dish is very interesting. It uses a lot of baby clams, which are dry-fried and then eaten with Vietnamese pancakes. In fact, I am very puzzled, where did the shells go if the clams are so small? It is impossible that they were peeled off, but I really like this delicacy. However, after leaving Hoi An, I really haven't seen it again. Maybe if someone knows, please leave a message to tell me. I also recommend everyone to try it. # Hoi An # Hoi An Ancient Town #中VietnamDa Nang #Hoi An #Hoi An Ancient Town #hoian #hoianvietnam
