Hoi An, this little city was once considered the best port city for trade by Chinese and Japanese merchants. The Hoi An lantern festival is very popular but during the current Covid situation the number of lanterns and visitors were much reduced but despite that it was still very magical and with a boat trip along the river where Hieu & Spring set two lanterns into the river, giving special offerings and good wishes to particular members of the voyagers on board. A very poignant moment.

This tradition started centuries ago, where on the full moon people from all over the region would come to participate.

Our tour ended in a beautiful coffee shop where we had views across this ancient town.
