Hoi An is located on the coast of Central Vietnam.
Historically, Hoi An served as an important point for trade.
In the 16th and 17th centuries Japanese, Chinese, Dutch, and Vietnamese merchants all lived in Hoi An and have contributed to its rich architecture.
Many of the yellow buildings are influenced by the French colonialists and are among the most beautiful structures I have seen in Vietnam.
The town lies on the water and boats are as important a form of transportation as trucks or motorbikes.
