My Son Sanctuary
Consider visiting the historical and mysterious My Son Sanctuary built by the kings of the Cham Kingdom from 4th to 13th century as place of worship. This UNESCO recognized World Heritage Site is known to be a sacred place for several centuries but little is known about the structures as artifacts were previously stolen or destroyed during the war. The partially My Son Sanctuary is considered as the Vietnamese version of Angkor Wat in Siem Reap, Cambodia. The best time to visit My Son Sanctuary is in the morning, as the visitors can watch the beautiful sunrise from the mountain. You can also witness the Apsara dance – a traditional Cham dance.
Cam Thanh Water Coconut Village
Next stop should be the new travel destination, Cam Thanh Water Coconut Village. This is not yet as famous as the other tourist spots in Hoi An but it is definitely worth a visit. There’s nothing more exciting than getting on a small circular basket boat and row between the water coconut that sheltered hundreds of residents during the war. Let loose and have fun while the boat rower spins your basket boat, you feel like you are on a roller coaster.
Hoi An Old Town
The highlight of the trip, the famous and historical Hoi An Old Town. The ancient Southeast Asian trading port is spectacularly well-preserved that it earned a UNESCO certificate as a World Heritage Site. The walking streets make it easier to go around the old town. There are Chinese and Japanese shophouses where you can get Hoi An silk clothings, handicrafts and delicious Hoi An dishes.
