Hoi An, once a bustling international port city, preserves centuries-old architectural heritage and is recognized by UNESCO as a world cultural heritage site. Despite the rapid pace of urbanization, Hoi An Ancient Town retains its classic beauty with traditional yellow tube houses, grey moss-covered walls, and narrow winding streets embracing the ancient houses. The layout of the city with its short, meandering streets creates a simple, rustic, and pure picture, reflecting the soul of the people of Quang Nam. The nostalgic charm of the ancient town is most fully expressed through famous landmarks such as the Japanese Covered Bridge, ancient houses like Quan Thang, Tan Ky, and Duc An, and assembly halls like Trieu Chau, Fujian, and Guangdong. Each site holds its own historical and cultural stories, contributing to Hoi An's unique value.
