Major Classic Destinatinons : Hoi An - VietNam

Mirrored in the poetic Thu Bon River, the postcard-setting Hoi An is perhaps the most charming old town in Vietnam. Not as majestic as Hue or flamboyant as Cho Lon in Saigon, Hoi An is still a big surprise to any jaded mind. Its quiet lanes lighted with lanterns, sleeping old houses and atmospheric riverfront restaurants, all carry an echo of history and charm.

Once an important trading port in Asia, Hoi An is the first place to witness economic and cultural exchange of Vietnam with the outside world. Its housing architecture features a perfect blend of Vietnamese, Chinese and Japanese styles. And despite a more-than-ever amount of tourists, Hoi An remains a peaceful town with a magical beauty that has survived through all ravages of wars and time.
