Let’s open the six wonders of Hoi An in Vietnam!! Go!!

Hoi An is recognized as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

1- Time seems to stop in Hoi An (aka Faifo).  Hoi An Ancient Town is an exceptionally well-preserved example of a South-East Asian trading port dating from the 15th to the 19th century.

During the last two centuries, battles and wars made the history of Vietnam. Which miracle has kept Hoi An untouched?

2- Hoi An was the port where traders from Europe, India, China and Japan met. Some settled down and brought their cultures to Hoi An. This answers for the unique cultural blend here.

Building that display a unique blend of local and foreign influences.

3- The icon of Hoi An: the Japanese bridge that locates next to a Chinese temple. The bridge was a link between Japanese and Chinese areas of Hoi An. Both were constructed by Vietnamese workers.
