Hoi An Street Scenes

The carefully preserved old trading town of Hoi An is self-consciously picturesque, in the manner of Colonial Williamsburg or Rottenberg, Germany. It's very touristy but still charming, with its antique houses and lantern-lit riverfront. As it has been for centuries, Hoi An is still famous for its fabric shops, tailors, and craft artisans, so we had fun shopping for our wardrobes and for our friend AJ’s new house.
