Hoi An was in its hey day during the 15th and 17th centuries when it was a busy trading city with China, Japan, Holland and India. Much of the original city is still intact, which means that visiting the city is like stepping back in time.

There are many different cultural, merchant and religious buildings that make Hoi An a very interesting place to visit and there are some stunning local handicrafts that are sold around the city too. Something else that has been done to make Hoi An a nice place to be is to ban cars and motor taxis from the city center. This means that you can safely wander around the town on foot and not have to jostle against honking cars and taxis the entire time. Close to the city there are fascinating ruins called My Son and to get some sun and sand there is the Cua Dai beach very close by and the famous China Beach as well, which is great for snorkeling and windsurfing. Since there is no nearby airport at Hoi An, the only way to get there is by road. This does not deter the thousands of tourists who come each year to see the historical city at its finest.

The main places to stay while visiting are the city center or out at Cua Dai beach, which is only about 3 kilometers out of town. Hoi An is a beautiful and intriguing location to visit.

There are several great hotels in Hoi An that will make your trip to the historical city a memorable one for all the right reasons.
