1. Ticket Counter

Hoi An is a UNESCO Heritage Site that requires a ticket to go into the attractions. Together we will buy tickets to contribute to preserving this ancient town

2. Japanese Covered Bridge

 Your trip to Hoi An Ancient Town will be incomplete if you miss out on the Japanese Covered Bridge, one of the most alluring attractions in Hoi An. The bridge is an excellent example of traditional Eastern architecture. Despite being built by Japanese merchants around the middle of the 16th century, through restoration, the Japanese Covered Bridge has become a harmonic architectural combination between Vietnamese, Japanese and Chinese cultures.

 3. Old house of Tấn Kí

This was the first house to be honored as a national heritage site and is also frequently visited by various governors. Over centuries, even after the historic flood of 1964, the ancient house remains miraculously intact. The wooden East Asian-inspired decorative patterns in the house are delicately carved, indicating the exchange between different architectural styles.

4. Hoi An Traditional Art Performance House

A break in a fully AC room to cool down and entertain with traditional performances using folklore instruments we are sure you won't see before. Also, attend a bingo game where we have a change to win a prize and bring the gift home.

 5. Museum of Folk Culture

490 objects are divided into four themes (plastic fork art, performing fork arts, traditional occupations and artifacts) and are displayed on the second floor of the Museum.  While the first floor is the place for vivid performances illustrating the value of Hoi An Culture and Folklore. The museum is considered a cultural institution and particularly rare in the region. By showing pictures and artifacts and performing fork arts, the Museum of Folk Culture shows the value of intangible culture, introducing a long history of culture, creativity, and the contributions of generations of local people during the history and development of the Hoi An area

6. Phuc Kien ( Cantonese) assembly hall

Built in 19th, the Cantonese Assembly Hall is located in the center of old town Hoi An. This assembly hall is a harmonious blend of materials of wood and stone. This place conserves many ceramic artifacts, which simulate and document the cultural life of the Cantonese community in Hoi An.

7. Hoi An Central Market

Unlike the calmness and tranquility of the old town, Hoi An Central Market is a distinct highlight of the ancient town, attracting a large number of tourists thanks to its bustling and lively atmosphere. The Market itself is divided into several areas for fresh seafood, vegetables, fruits, souvenirs... but perhaps the most appealing place must be the food court. Here, visitors will have the chance to try various delicacies of Central Vietnam cuisine such as Cao lau, Quang noodles, etc.

8. Hoi An coffee shop

This cafe is known for its delicious pastries, incredible juices, and amazing coffee. The staff are absolutely lovely and the atmosphere is serene and relaxing. It’s the perfect place to take a break from the hot and hectic streets of Hoi An and enjoy a delicious treat. Visitors have described it as a “heavenly haven in Hoi An” and praised its “superb cafe experience”. It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area! 😊
