Hoi An Magic Day✨Chasing colors

Spending a day in Hoi An feels like walking through a living painting. The old town is full of narrow alleyways, lined with mustard-yellow houses and centuries-old buildings, all beautifully contrasted by bursts of bougainvillea in full bloom. The combination of colors, textures, and history gives this place an almost magical vibe. 🚶🏽♀️Start your morning with a slow stroll through the Old Town. 🌉 Stop by the Japanese Covered Bridge—one of Hoi An’s most iconic landmarks—and soak in the views over the canal. 🛒 Then, head to the Central Market for a taste of local life. 🏮In the afternoon, take a lantern-making workshop. 👗Or, if you’re into fashion, get measured for a custom-made outfit from one of the town’s many talented tailors—they’re known for quick turnarounds and great craftsmanship. 🌅 As the sun begins to set, make your way to the riverside. The whole town lights up with colorful lanterns reflecting off the water. 🥢 Grab dinner at one of the riverside restaurants, or sample local specialties like cao lầu and white rose dumplings from a street vendor. 🛶 End your day with a boat ride along the Thu Bồn River. You can release a paper lantern into the water for good luck—a simple but beautiful tradition that’s hard to forget. #hellohalloween #vietnam #hoian
