City/town information

Hoi An is a small town which is situated on the bank of Thu Bon river located in central Vietnam. There is no airport, and no train station either, that’s why the only way to get to Hoi An is by road. You can also take a flight to Da Nang city, then rent a motorbike or take a bus to go to Hoi An. Hoi An was a bustling international trading port in Southeast Asia from the 15th to the 19th century. Although large-scale trading had long moved elsewhere, Hoi An has been successful in preserving and restoring its charming roots and was recognized as the World Heritage by UNESCO in 1998. Nowadays, Hoi An is one of the most famous tourist destinations in Vietnam. The great thing about Hoi An’s Old Town is that it is small enough to get around on foot. All Hoi An’s major attractions or landmarks are located within walking distance, and some of the streets are only for pedestrians. These factors make Hoi An, even more, inviting for most travelers to Vietnam, especially those who have passed through big cities with crazy traffic like Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi. For those who love sea, sun, and sand, Hoi An offers two lovely beaches which are five kilometers away from the town center. Renting a bike, riding around the town to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere is really enjoyable. Hoi An Riverside is the best place to be at night as the area is lit by quaint and old-fashioned lanterns, making it an atmospheric and beautiful spot for people to take photos. Hoi An is also known for its great food with reasonable price. The highlights of the meal often include local specialties such as banh mi (Vietnamese baguette) and Cao Lau (a pork noodle dish).

Marble Mountains is a group of five limestone peaks situated seven kilometres from downtown Da Nang. The five karsts (called Ngu Hanh Son in Vietnamese) are named after the five elements: Kim (metal), Thuỷ (water), Mộc (wood), Hoả (fire) and Thổ (earth). Over centuries, Marble Mountains has held special significance for the people of Central Vietnam. The ancient Cham revered the karsts as a spiritual site, and Vietnamese emperors from Hue and legendary generals passing through paid visits to the peaks, adding to their store of legends. Today Marble Mountains is home to a network of caves, tunnels, towers, and pagodas built by Mahayana Buddhists and the Nguyen Dynasty Kings. The structures and shrines blend harmoniously with nature: Vine tendrils drip from above, frangipani and poinciana trees drop their blossoms on the stone paths, and the pagodas’ ornate roofs sparkle in the tropical sun. It’s a setting that easily captures the imagination.

Between the 4th and 13th centuries a unique culture which owed its spiritual origins to Indian Hinduism developed on the coast of contemporary Viet Nam. This is graphically illustrated by the remains of a series of impressive tower-temples located in a dramatic site that was the religious and political capital of the Champa Kingdom for most of its existence.
