We arrived at Hoi An town and have been spending the day looking around the place. it's a small riverside town that used to be the major Vietnamese port hundreds of years ago. Many different countries used to come here to trade before trading moved to Danang up the road. All the building here are a hundred or so years old and the town looks like it did at that time.

The streets are small and the buildings are lovely. Sadly 90% of the shops are tailors and pretty much everything here revolves around tourism.

However it is a lovely place and well worth a visit. Our hotel is great with a lovely swimming pool on the roof. Everything is walking distance and there are some nice places to explore on bicycle which we will do tomorrow.

We're off on a day trip to My Son tomorrow which is a collection of old Cham temples dating back about a thousand years.
