Some places are just beautiful. And then, there are places that have beautiful stories intrinsically attached to them.
✨Hoi An, definitely is one of that kind.
The Ancient Town of Hoi An has preserved its incredible legacy of tottering Japanese merchant houses, Chinese temples, and ancient tea warehouses – though, of course, residents and rice fields have been gradually replaced by tourist businesses.
Lounge bars, Insta-worthy restaurants, chique cafes, boutique hotels, souvenir stores, and hundreds of tailor shops have taken over this place.
While I swayed my way through the crowd on a Friday evening, the scene changed drastically on a Saturday morning. I found myself walking down the deserted streets, where the shops were yet to open and the residents of the ancient houses sat out to soak in the silence.
