Its streets full of lanterns and colorful colonial houses wow travelers when they set foot in its Ancient Town for the first time. This coastal town definitely holds a long-standing history where both indigenous and foreign influences have played a major role. This results in its various historical sites that make up a unique heritage of Hoi An.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What makes Hoi An history so special? It represents a perfect example of a melting pot that has evolved over time in an international commercial port. Considered the most important harbor in Vietnam during the 16th century, \u00a0merchants from all over the world (China, Japan, Holland, and India mainly) found shelter in this small town located in Central Vietnam. As the years went by, they forged a rich, diverse culture that still attracts thousands of visitors every year. During the years of Chinese occupation, Hoi An was known as \u2018Hai Pho\u2019 (village near the sea in Vietnamese). This later turned into \u2018Faifo\u2019 during the Indochina times under the French colonization. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just by walking around its many historical sites, travelers will realize the tremendous cultural value contained in each aged facade or communal house around the Ancient Town. In fact, its authenticity proves to be a trademark trait since Hoi An has managed to preserve its traditional wooden architecture and townscape. Its original street plan with buildings backing onto the river as well as its layout made up of canals, quays and bridges remain as it once was.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2436\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2436\" style=\"width: 701px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2436\" title=\"Smiling Female tourist enjoy with Ho An friendly local street seller in Hoi An Ancient Town\" src=\"https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-3-of-3-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"Smiling Female tourist enjoy with Ho An friendly local street seller \" width=\"701\" height=\"464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-3-of-3-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-3-of-3-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-3-of-3-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-3-of-3.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 701px) 100vw, 701px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2436\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A female tourist has fun with Hoi An local street seller in Hoi An Ancient Town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Top_5_Places_to_Visit_in_Ancient_Town\"><\/span>Top 5 Places to Visit\u00a0in Ancient Town<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a class=\"_ps2id\" href=\"#japanbridge\" data-ps2id-offset=\"\">Japanese Bridge<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"_ps2id\" href=\"#phuockien\" data-ps2id-offset=\"\">Phuoc Kien Assembly Hall<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"_ps2id\" href=\"#ducan\" data-ps2id-offset=\"\">Duc An Old House<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"_ps2id\" href=\"#campho\" data-ps2id-offset=\"\">Cam Pho Communal House<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"_ps2id\" href=\"#thanhha\" data-ps2id-offset=\"\">Thanh Ha Terracota Park<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Visiting_Map\"><\/span>Visiting Map<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Most of the spots are within walking distance so its a good day tour.

The iconic bridge\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">separated the Japanese community from all the others, mainly Chinese groups that came from different provinces in the land of the Red Dragon. Besides its fascinating architecture, this bridge holds a hidden gem: there is a small pagoda in the middle where fishermen worship the northern god Tran Vo Mac De, considered to be the deity of weather.

Inside this assembly hall, you will find three deities that are all related to fishing (Thien Hau, sea goddess; Than Phong Nhi, who listens to the sound of distant ships; and Then Ly Nhan, who sees those faraway boats). \u00a0On top of that, the place is beautifully decorated with ancient Chinese structures and, at the back of the hall, there is a large and very impressive dragon statue.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2434\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2434\" style=\"width: 701px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2434\" title=\" The upper architecture of a Chinese temple in Hoi An ancien town \" src=\"https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-1-of-3-1024x703.jpg\" alt=\" The upper architecture of a Chinese temple in Hoi An ancien town \" width=\"701\" height=\"481\" srcset=\"https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-1-of-3-1024x703.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-1-of-3-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-1-of-3-768x527.jpg 768w, https:\/\/xotours.vn\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/hoi-an-photos-1-of-3.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 701px) 100vw, 701px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2434\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hoi An traditional Chinese Temple architecture can be seen on the entrance to Phuoc Kien.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<strong>Duc An Old House<\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0(129 Tran Phu) has done a genuine effort to present some real history and to remain intact despite the fact that 400 years have gone by.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The surviving wooden structures scattered around the Ancient Town are original and intact, a living example of the traditional South East Asian trading port and commercial center that Hoi An once was. Unfortunately, many of these old houses have sold out to the tourist industry and turned into restaurants, cafes, bars, tailors or souvenir shops.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0A nice step back in time, this building from 1850 portrays what life would be like in Hoi An two or three hundred years ago when this family hosted the most successful bookshop in central Vietnam selling renowned Vietnamese and Chinese texts along with the works of foreign political figures at the time. If you are lucky enough to meet one of the family descendants, they will show you around enthusiastically and tell you tales of their childhood times spent in this ancient house.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Cam Pho<\/b> (Communal House of the Cantonese Chinese Community)<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(52 Nguy<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u1ec5<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">n Th<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u1ecb<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Minh Khai) is<\/span>\u00a0one of the oldest structures in the village (more than 200 years old) and an intrinsic part of the merchant heritage of this town.\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Communal houses in Vietnam used to be not only a place of worship but also an administrative center to hold meetings of the village\u2019s officials. These buildings helped preserved the deep-rooted culture and served as meeting points for holding cultural activities and celebrations.

If shopping in the vicinity, just enter and explore this colorful house that looks more like a temple nowadays. Plus there aren\u2019t many tourists inside which makes the visit more enjoyable and peaceful.
