Hoi An wasn’t in our plan because of our tight schedule and that was also why we were based in Danang. After finding out it would take only 45 minutes on a motorbike to get to Hoi An, we had to change our plan immediately. Motorbike rental is cheap in Vietnam, costs between USD5 – USD7. As our hotel is pretty close to the coast line, we were told we just had to follow the coast and head south. Along the the coastal line in Danang, a lot of developments were taking place: luxury residential, hotels, huge golf courses…. it’s definitely an upcoming tourist spot.

          The Old Town of Hoi An is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The old houses and life in Hoi An old town definitely made me feel that I had been brought back to 150 years ago. Strolling along the narrow lanes was definitely the best way to explore this ancient town. Tailor-made clothing is one of the best trades in Hoi An. Good quality of silk can be found here. Just imagine that some shops can get your order ready within 3 hours – was probably the fastest tailor-made clothing service that I have ever found so far! Apart from that, handmade silk lanterns are hot items too!
