Hoi An Ancient Town is an ancient town located downstream of the Thu Bon River, in the coastal plain of Quang Nam province, Vietnam, about 30 km south of Da Nang city.

Where was Hoi An old town?

We started at 7 am and had breakfast with a loaf of Banh mi Phuong at lane 2B, Phan Chau Trinh street. If you come to Hanoi, you must eat Pho, and if you come to Hoi An, you cannot ignore Banh mi Phuong. Banh mi Phuong was born in 1990 and was the place to bring Vietnamese bread to a new level. Each loaf of Phuong bread has a price ranging from 30,000 VND to 40,000 VND. With such a price, you can enjoy the best loaf of bread in the world. It's worth it, isn't it?

After having breakfast, let's move to Faito Coffee to chill and see the whole old town from above. Located at 130 Tran Phu Street, Faito Coffee is a coffee shop designed with ancient style. Surfing around Facebook or Instagram, it is not difficult to come across pictures taken on Faito Coffee's terrace. The best time to take beautiful pictures in the corner of the balcony is at sunrise and sunset. The price of drinks here is slightly higher than in other shops, but the drinks are very tasty and satisfying.

Tran Family 

Church

After having such a wonderful breakfast, we decided to visit the Tran family church. The Tran family church is located on Le Loi street - the center of Hoi An Ancient Town. The church was built by a mandarin during the Gia Long period in 1802. This is a place used to worship ancestors of the Tran family and is a place to preserve the traditions and filial piety of each descendant who always remembers their roots. However, up to now, this Tran family church is not only a place of worship for the family; it is also a religious and cultural symbol of the people in Hoi An. The ticket price for Vietnamese tourists is 80,000 VND/per person and for international tourists: 150,000 VND/per person. Not the ticket price to Hoi An ethnic church is 80,000 VND, but this is the price that visitors can choose from four out of 21 fee points in the Old Quarter.

After leaving the Tran family church, it's almost noon. You can buy 1 tube of ice cream and one glass of herbal juice to enjoy while walking in the old town. You can have lunch by eating  at .

This is one of the best Cao Lau restaurants in Vietnam. With a full bowl, the char siu meat is tender, the noodles are tough, the raw vegetables are washed and the pork skin is deeply fried, the char siu gravy is quite delicious. Especially, at the restaurant, there is hot and cold tea available and you will serve yourself. The price of a bowl is only 30,000 VND

After lunch, it is already noon, with the heat of the tropics, checking in to the coffee places is the most appropriate, right? And Hoi An Roastery is the most famous brand of the coffee chain in the old town here. The space is decorated in European style, making the scene come alive, modern mixed with antiquity. 

Regarding drinks, the chain stores combine a pure and bold coffee roastery, and professional drink recipes and the image of the extremely hot drink that has been made is indispensable. The trend in the youth community in Hoi An is Coconut Coffee because its taste is really hard to refuse.

Continue our journey to a relic of religion and belief in Hoi An, equally famous as the Phuc Kien Assembly Hall, also known as Phuoc Kien, built in 1697, this is the place to worship the god, Tien Hien. and is also a place for the Fujian compatriots to meet, live and make a career. Hoi An Phuc Kien Assembly Hall is now located at 46 Tran Phu Street, Cam Chau, Hoi An City, Quang Nam. Hoi An tourists can visit the assembly hall from 7:00 to 17:00 and the ticket price is only from 80,000 to 150,000 VND.
