Not as mysterious as the Hue Imperial City or natural as Ha Long Bay, Hoi An Ancient Town offers other antique features of architectural monuments of various forms: living house, assembly hall, communal house, pagoda, shrine, temple, bridge, market, etc. These have been preserved rather intact. Therefore, Hoi An Ancient Town is well known for ancient houses that are more than 300 years old and the very well preserved Japanese Bridge that was built several hundred years ago.

Tourists from over the world are really interested in the monthly event at the Hoi An Ancient Town, which is called “Light Bright”. At night on the 15^th day of each lunar month, there would be no fluorescent lights, no motorcycles, and no television through the town. The people will live by the light from candles, oil lamps, and from paper lanterns.

 Hoi An Ancient Town is also an ideal place for explorers to discover an outstanding form of living museum of architecture and urban life, and the astounding cultures of the Cham, Chinese, French, Japanese, and Vietnamese peoples.
