When to go to Hoi An?
Hoi An's old town is closed to cars and hung with silk lanterns, its merchant houses still carrying the Chinese and Japanese detail of a trading port. The Japanese Bridge crosses the stream at one end, cao lau shops fill the lanes behind it, and the tailors turn a jacket around overnight. An Bang beach is a flat bicycle ride away through the rice fields.
