Description
Your day begins with a seamless hotel pick-up, launching an immersive tour of Hoi An’s UNESCO-listed Ancient Town.
As you explore, you will discover the town’s vibrant atmosphere, passing bustling open-air markets and multi-generational tailor shops. You will marvel at the iconic Japanese Covered Bridge, a 17th-century architectural masterpiece guarded by stone statues. Your guide will highlight its unique built-in Buddhist shrine, constructed to appease a legendary water monster and link the historical Japanese and Chinese quarters. Next, step inside the grand Fujian Congregation Hall, built in 1690. Here, you will admire its majestic three-gate pink entrance, intricate dragon carvings, and a grand altar dedicated to Thien Hau, the goddess of the sea.
The journey continues into a centuries-old, UNESCO-protected shophouse. Inside, you can examine heavy jackwood beams, sun-lit inner courtyards, and a clever pulley system used to hoist merchandise to safety during seasonal river floods. Finally, visit a local handicraft center, a bustling workshop where the town’s legacy comes alive. You will watch master craftsmen practice traditional wood carving and witness the meticulous process of shaping colorful silk over bamboo frames to create Hoi An’s world-famous glowing lanterns.
