Hoi An Ancient Town, Hoi An

It's really nice. The first time you go, it's magical. The second, third, and fourth times, it's less magical and you begin to notice how crowded it is. You DO have to pay for an entrance ticket (120,000 d/ person/ 2 weeks). They don't stop everyone to make sure they've bought a ticket, so for new tourists it seems like a scam when out of no where someone demands payment. But, it is not a scam, just a badly executed fund raising method. (The money pays for the restoration of the area.) Pros:

I am in love with this beautiful little city. Eventhough it has turned to be commercial place but the rich of culture still can be found here. Try to observe the small lanes, you will see more how local people live and spend their daily activity. Food is amazing there.

A UNESCO World Heritage ancient town, well preserved and beautiful. Sit along the riverfront and imagine the traders for centuries have been transporting their wares on these waters and the shore. You do get transported to another world. On a full moon night the place gets even more mystical as all the shops put out their paper lanterns.

Very Interesting Place. Lots to see and eat. Not many shops open in the day, more open during the evening. Besides shopping and viewing the pretty and colorful shops, you can take a river boat ride. The river runs right through the middle of ancient town.

I don't have words to explain how beautiful this little town is! 2 nights is a must here and if you are visiting with wife or gf then it would surely be a memorable one! Must visit if going to Vietnam! Danang is the nearest airport being around 10 km from this town! However it's recommended that you book your flight from/to hue for a breathtaking road journey which is very famous!
