Hoi An: vacations, maps, visas, tours, resorts, hotels and reviews

Hoi An is located on the banks of the Thu Bon River, which stretches just 30 kilometers from the resort town of Da Nang. It is interesting that, despite its territorial affiliation, the Chinese atmosphere completely prevails in the city, which manifests itself in one-story houses under tiled roofs and narrow streets. For tourists, Hoi An is a wonderful resort town that combines:

long paradise beaches with white sand;
quality diving;
famous landmarks officially recognized as world heritage.

Getting to the town is quite difficult, since there are no airports on its territory. Initially, you should come to the city of Da Nang, on the territory of which there is both an airport and a railway. From there you can already take a taxi, for which you will have to pay no more than $ 20, and calmly get to your destination. Don't forget that Hoi An is quite a popular destination, so you can trust the regular bus instead of a taxi, which will cost you a little less.

It is noteworthy that the entire old town of Hoi An is listed by UNESCO. If you are going here to spend interesting days during excursions, then you should start by visiting the Chuk Thanh Pagoda, the oldest in the whole city. There are also a large number of interesting private houses representing the life and culture of Hoi An of ancient times. So, for example, the house of Ziep Dong Nguyen, a house on the street.
