"A small gem" Hoi An by pmarshuk
Hoi An Travel Guide: 797 reviews and 1,713 photos
I loved Hoi An despite the fact it rained almost all the time I was there. It is a small compact town where everything is in walking distance.
The rain was caused by a small typhoon which hit further down the coast, but it caused enough rain around Hoi An that the Thu Bon River overflowed and flooded.
The whole town has been designated as a UNESCO world Heritage Site and it is easy to see why as you walk around it.
