Hoi An Ancient Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of Southeast Asia’s most remarkably preserved historic trading ports, flourishing between the 15th and 19th centuries. Nestled along the picturesque Thu Bon River in central Vietnam, its 30-hectare historic center showcases a unique blend of Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, and European influences, reflecting centuries of cultural exchange and maritime commerce.
