🌸 Hoi An – Timeless Charm by Day & Magical Glow by Night 🏮

Hoi An, a UNESCO World Heritage town in central Vietnam, is a place where history, culture, and beauty meet. By day, the ancient streets are filled with yellow-walled buildings, wooden shop houses, and tailor shops where you can get custom clothes made in just a day 👗. By night, the entire town transforms into a glowing wonderland of colorful lanterns, reflecting beautifully on the Thu Bon River 🌊. 🚝 How to get there from Da Nang: • Taxi/Grab: 30–45 mins (~350,000–400,000 VND / $14–16) • Shuttle bus: 45–60 mins (~120,000–150,000 VND / $5–6) • Motorbike rental: ~150,000 VND/day ($6) 💡 Lantern Light Time: Lanterns are lit daily from around 6:00 PM until 10:00 PM, with the most magical view just after sunset 🌅. 🍂 Best Season to Visit: February to April – dry, pleasant weather, and fewer crowds compared to peak summer. ✨ Highlights: • Japanese Covered Bridge – The symbol of Hoi An 🇯🇵 • Hoi An Night Market – Souvenirs, street food, and endless photo spots 🌮 • Thu Bon River Boat Ride – Especially magical at night with floating lanterns 🏮 • Tailor Shops – Get a custom dress or suit made in 24 hours 🧵 • Cao Lau Noodles – A unique Hoi An specialty you can’t miss 🍜 💰 Budget: • Entrance ticket for Old Town: 120,000 VND (~$5) • Street food: 20,000–50,000 VND ($1–2) • Lantern boat ride: 100,000–150,000 VND ($4–6) Verdict: Hoi An is the perfect mix of cultural charm and romantic night vibes. Come for the history, stay for the lantern magic. #hoian #hoianvietnam #visithoian #hoianoldtown #hoianlantern #hoiannightmarket #hoianriver #thubonriver #japanesecoveredbridge #hoianfood #CaoLau #vietnamtravel #vietnamtrip #visitvietnam #travelvietnam #hoianbynight #lanternfestivalhoian #vietnamculture #hoianancienttown #amazingvietnam #postandearn #holidayitinerary #caolầu
