Hoi An

In 1999, the riverside town was listed a UNESCO World Heritage site in an effort to preserve its core of historic architecture, a unique mix of Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, and European styles. The majority of Hoi An's most beautiful buildings were constructed from the 15th to 19th centuries. 

Restaurants offer menus of local specialties and American breakfasts; tailors offer suits made in less than 24 hours. Most people who visit are charmed by this picture postcard setting.
