Hoi An Ancient Town (Hoi An Ancient Town) in Vietnam was listed as a World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO, and its beauty has gradually been seen by the world. Tourists from all over the world are also welcoming visitors from all over the world. They are stationed under the architectural structure of the ancient town. Lots of shops, restaurants, and markets, and the lighted boats on the Thu Bon River at night make the place even more beautiful.
My Hoi An Ancient City Shuttle Route
First of all, Hoi An covers an area of about 61.4 square kilometers, which is slightly smaller than Tamsui District in New Taipei City. However, it is also a city adjacent to rivers. In the 16th century, it was a port city for trade from China, Japan, India, and the Netherlands to Vietnam. The trading status of the seaport was transferred to Da Nang, but it was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1999, and it became famous for tourism.
Since then, Hoi An has been walking the tourist circle as an "old town". Many media, blogs and travel agencies have introduced information that fully explains its antique, Chinese architecture, and ancestral halls. There are no traces of high-rise buildings in it, just like August Osmanthus is light and fragrant and fresh, let us take a walk slowly with these characteristics when we visit, and let you know how to go the route in a graphical way.

Hoi An Ancient Town (Hoi An Ancient Town) preserves the beauty of old buildings intact
We fill up our stomachs at "Madam Khanh – The Banh Mi Queen" and "Star Coffee". Wendy will take the walking route. I am responsible for taking pictures to experience the beauty of Hoi An. I found that the appearance of these shops is very ancient Chinese architecture. Features, such as spires, roof tiles, beams, red bricks, etc., before you do your homework and write an article, it is difficult to imagine why they can be preserved so far and beautiful.
For those who like to go shopping, some of the specialty shops here are of high quality and good price. You can dig for treasures, but most of them sell specialty souvenirs or clothing.In addition, many girls will wear traditional Vietnamese costumes, Ao Dai, and take pictures in the ancient town of Hoi An. Interested readers may wish to prepare in advance, and the shooting will be quite atmospheric.
Don’t be too surprised if you see a whole (human-pedal) convoy. This is a product of tourism development. Most of the convoys are contracted by group passengers to travel slowly around the ancient city. Those with elders can consider taking a look and let them experience it. The same itinerary, how about the price?Some bloggers shared about 25 to 30 VND for half an hour. Remember to bargain and tip to make your trip rich and enjoyable.

Experiences of visiting Fujian Assembly Hall and coupons for surrounding attractions
From the beginning of the route map made by Anya, you will also find that there are many ancestral temples, temples or special attractions in the ancient town. Some attractions require tickets to visit, such as: Phuc Kien Assembly Hall (Phuc Kien Assembly Hall), Guan Di Temple (Chua Ong) Pagoda), Tam Ky House (Tam Ky House), Lai Vien Bridge (Lai Vien Bridge), you can buy a combined ticket to visit these places.
Since we were closed when we arrived at the Hokkien Guild Hall, we could only let Little Hamburger walk around here. However, the Hokkien Hall was one of the most famous landmarks in Hoi An. It originated from the construction of Fujianese merchants in the 17th century here as a sacrifice to Mazu and Mazu. As a gathering place for overseas Chinese, the stone tortoises and stone carvings of auspicious dragon offerings in the museum are exquisite craftsmanship by the masters, and you can feel the beauty of the essence when you take a closer look.
▲ I did feel like I was still in Taiwan when I walked in.
▲ Stone turtle is also a representative of common auspiciousness.
▲ Xianglong Xianrui, you can carefully understand its subtleties.
▲ From the perspective of the two characteristics of Fujian and overseas trade, it is not difficult to understand the intention of the main god as Mazu.
Take a trip to Hoi An Market (Hoi An Market)
This market is located between the Hokkien Guild Hall and the river bank. A variety of small vendors sell goods, including fruits, cloth bags, special lanterns, and souvenirs. The prices are definitely bargaining. For my first visit to Vietnam In terms of business quality, the sense of quality can be regarded as "simple", but I still want to buy a few things to go back as souvenirs, but I will not buy a full bed like traveling in Thailand.
▲ There are small vendors along the way.
▲ I still can’t help buying some interesting art.
▲ Hoi An Market continues to have shops and scenic spots to visit.
▲ These T-shirts are also quite special.
▲ The lady next to Wendy is very persevering... Constantly persuading him to take a boat on the river bank.
▲ I plan to come again next time, so be sure to take a stroll.
The beauty of the banks and the lights of the Thu Bon River
I don’t understand why Wendy keeps rushing forward, I can’t even go shopping! (Angry) In the evening, I finally walked all the way from Guzhen Street to the shore, and the docked boats gradually lit up with lanterns. I really couldn't help but... "Wow~ It's so beautiful!" After wondering again and again, I realized that the time must come. The reason for the autumnal riverbank is that the color temperature of the sunset is extremely beautiful, which is very killer (old school)!
Wendy, the iron cock, was unmoved and didn’t take this boat to cruise the Qiupan River. It’s not clear how much the cost of a ride will be. I will fill it up when I ask for information later. There are many coffee shops and restaurants on the shore. While those foreigners drank coffee while admiring the shore scenery, they also wanted to follow the example of picking a door to ask, but in exchange for "there is only food available" and the waiter floated away (with a cold attitude).
Ok!God must want us to concentrate on taking pictures and enjoy the scenery by ourselves, right?
▲ Always wear a life jacket when riding.
▲ Should life be so leisurely?
▲ Some restaurants have a balcony on the second floor for better views.
▲ Can't help but pick up the camera and keep taking pictures.
▲ When the sunset has different brilliance, this trip is enough.
▲ There are also vendors selling this kind of water lanterns on the shore.
▲ The boat on the other end is full of poetry.
Hoi An Night Market is crowded
Crossing the bridge to the other end of the river bank is already full of people. Hoi An Night Market is full of tourists. There are various restaurants and food stalls in Hoi An Night Market. You might as well find a restaurant to have a good meal. After that, visit the night market and return to the hotel with satisfaction. .We took a small burger and couldn't play too late, and booked a hotel massage treatment, so we had to stroll around the night market to go back to the entrance of the ancient town and call a Grab Taxi back to the hotel.
▲ At the entrance of Hoi An Night Market.
▲ The newlyweds came here to shoot wedding dresses.
▲ If you want to eat or go shopping, it can be the perfect ending of this day's itinerary.
Lai Vien Bridge and night tour of the ancient town
When we walked to the Far Bridge, there was a group of people setting off water lanterns and photographing the bridge deck. This bridge was built by the Japanese in the 16th century to separate the Japanese and Chinese neighborhoods. The more curious one is visiting from the ancient town. Seeing Chinese-style buildings, I’m not sure whether the so-called "Japanese blocks" still exist. Welcome to leave a message and share with me.When I checked the information, I mentioned that "it started in the year of the monkey and finished in the year of the dog." Therefore, there are small monkeys and puppies on both sides of the bridge.
Finally, when we left Hoi An ancient town, the shops all turned on the lantern lighting equipment, the neighborhoods and lanes have more atmosphere, no wonder it can become a well-known attraction, so beautiful, easy to shoot, and so fun!
