There are times when an uncrowded getaway is all we need. With that, Vietnam has Hoi An for an answer. It’s a quaint ancient town in Quảng Nam province, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1999.

Hoi An maintained its untainted beauty amid the recent bold march of progress. The easygoing vibe and fewer crowds in every attraction within the city make it appealing to those who want to unwind by taking a break from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Its exceptionally well-preserved vintage architecture of French, Chinese, Japanese, and Vietnamese styles is one of its top-rated attractions. Roam around the old town and marvel at the fusion designs of the Japanese Covered Bridge, Tan Ky Ancestral House, and Phuoc Kien Assembly Hall.

The closest international airport to Hoi An within the 35-kilometer range is Da Nang International Airport, which serves daily flights to Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Busan, Macau, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Phnom Penh, Taipei, and Hong Kong.

Book sooner rather than later if you already have your dates set. Cheaper-priced rooms and hotels with high reviews tend to get fully booked faster, especially during busy days like weekends, holidays & peak tourist seasons.
