Magic Hoi An (Vietnam)
Magic city or city of the lanterns. I have
never seen so many and so beautifully displayed.
If you go to Vietnam you must include Hoi
An in your trip.
This amazing place is located in Vietnam´s
central coast and it´s old town is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It is an old trading Port, that fact can
be seen in its architecture and life style, that mixes French, Chinese,
Japanese influences and others. Is a place where you can see
beautiful temples, colonial French buildings, Chinese wooden houses, all
very well ornate with beautiful silk lanterns, that create a magical
atmosphere. It´s worth to spend, at least 3 days enjoying the atmosphere. It
was my favourite city in Vietnam.
Rent a bicycle and explore the city, get
some tailor made clothes, enjoy the street food, do a workshop with one of non-profit
organizations, buy some lanterns, go on a boat trip and sip a drink just
watching the world go by from one pf the roof tops.
Is one of the places and I really want to
go back.
