Hoian Ancient town and My Son Sanctuary Full day
Tour brief
Hoi An and My Son, Quang Nam city with two heritage recognize by Unesco. We will begin our half day trip with a visit to the capital and religious centre of the former Champa Kingdom, My Son, which has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Graceful, historic Hoi An is Vietnam’s most atmospheric and delightful town. Once a major port, it boasts the grand architecture and beguiling riverside setting that befits its heritage, but the 21st-century curses of traffic and pollution are almost entirely absent.
Hoi An owes its easygoing provincial demeanour and remarkably harmonious old-town character more to luck than planning. Had the Thu Bon River not silted up in the late 19th century – so ships could no longer access the town’s docks – Hoi An would doubtless be very different today. For a century, the city’s allure and importance dwindled until an abrupt rise in fortunes in the 1990s, when a tourism boom transformed the local economy. Today Hoi An is once again a cosmopolitan melting pot, one of the nation’s most wealthy towns, a culinary mecca and one of Vietnam’s most important tourism centres.
With mysterious beauty, My Son Sanctuary is one of the most unique tourist destinations in Quang Nam province, it is attracting thousands of domestic and foreign tourists visiting each year.
