One of the most memorable places I visited was Hoi An, which is located on the central coast of Vietnam. I went there last summer after I heard a lot of my friends talk about its beautiful Latin-Lith street and the peaceful atmosphere. I decided to go because I want to have a break after a hard-working year and Ho An seemed like the perfect place to go for me. The moment I arrived there, I was blown down by how charming the town looked. An ancient town, teeming with with tourists and colorful lanterns hanging everywhere. Most of the time I stayed there, I walked around the town trying local dishes like galo or bain mi which were absolutely very delicious. I also joined a lantern making workshop which was surprisingly very fun and it gave me a better understanding about traditional handicraft. After all, I feel extremely relaxed and healing during this trip. and have very calm and welcoming vibe. It’s definitely the play I love to return and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and culturally rich vacation.
