Hoi An Ancient Town - A peaceful early morning

in Worldmappin2 years ago

Hello everyone, it's been a long time since I had the opportunity to return to Hoi An ancient town, a world cultural heritage. Due to the nature of my work, I have traveled a lot in the past time. And this is my first time coming back to Hoi An after more than a year. In my memory, Hoi An has always been a wonderful destination with poetic streets, old houses, colorful lanterns, honest and simple people and delicious food. Follow me to discover Hoi An ancient town early in the morning in this post.

Maybe I was too eager after a long time to return to Hoi An, so I woke up very early to enjoy the atmosphere there. At that time, the sun had not yet risen on the horizon, everything seemed to be still asleep.

Waiting for a while, the first rays of light quickly appeared, the whole old town appeared in a beautiful and peaceful way.

From the center of Hoi An, I was able to clearly see everything from above and below the water of Hoai River. Hoai River is like a mirror reflecting the beautiful old town streets in a poetic way.

In the early morning, the roads are still empty, sometimes with a few pedestrians or a few bicycles passing. Hoi An Ancient Town is usually very busy during the day, so you rarely see such empty streets. It was such a peaceful and fresh feeling.

Moments later, more pedestrians and cyclists appeared. To protect this world cultural heritage, the local government only allows pedestrians and bicycles to enter this area. The pedestrians are usually local people, they wake up early to exercise or to make a living.

Bicycles have also appeared more and more on the roads. Some of them may be tourists cycling around to see and explore, and the rest are locals who use bicycles as a means of transportation for a living.

Roadside vendors also began to be displayed to be ready to welcome the first customers of the new day. Coming to Hoi An, you can easily enjoy delicious food or buy souvenirs right by the roadside.

Locals know how to enjoy life. They often get up early and gather at roadside restaurants or bars to have breakfast, drink coffee, chat and enjoy the fresh and peaceful atmosphere of the early morning.

While tourists like me, take advantage of the early sunshine to take the best photos of Hoi An. You may notice that visitors to Hoi An can be from many different ages, and each person enjoys Hoi An in their own way.

And of course a destination that not only me and almost all visitors do not miss is Pagoda Bridge. Pagoda Bridge is considered the soul of Hoi An. It is a symbol, a witness and a bridge between history and the present, between culture and friendship between countries.

Thank you very much for your great support.

I can absolutely see why you feel this place is special - it looks magical. I love how colourful and vibrant it is, it has soul. It's great that it's being protected from a heritage point of view and only allows bicycles and pedestrian traffic, the air must be so clean that way too with no car exhaust fumes.

You really did get some incredible photos!

What is that red net over the river for?

Thank you very much for your visit and lovely words. The ancient town is beautiful by itself, my job was simply taking the photos of it. And the locals use that red net to catch the fish from the river. @emma-h

You're most welcome, it was a splendid post and glad I now know the use of the net, would be great to get some photos of them fishing with it.

Have a lovely day further

It reminded me of our village and some houses in the Philippines 😊

I think we share a lot in common with Philipines, then the structure looks similiar. I heard about some beautiful villages in Philipines too. Thank you very much for your visit.

Yup.. As well as Thailand and Indonesia 🥰.

The photos are all brilliant. I like the stalls where they sell everything. And the use of colors is outstanding !

Good heavens... I've enjoyed looking at these photos a world!... You are a master my dear friend!... Bravo!... No more words!... Congratulations!...
