Top Activities to Do in Hoi An at Night – Go Out and Paint the Town!

If you find yourself in central Vietnam and are wondering where you could spend your nights, head over to Hoi An; a city that is often overlooked by tourists in Vietnam but is one of the most vibrant and charming cities in the country.

1. Watch the Sunset

Climb to a high spot where you can look over the garbled roofs of the city and catch the sunset with a delicious drink in hand. The city itself will contribute to the beauty with colonial-era tiled roofs, lanterns and gardens.

2. Discover Street Food

Explore the street food scene and be sure to try delicacies such as Quang noodles, Cao Lau, spring rolls, chicken rice and wonton for example. A good tip is to always ask for the price before you sit down at a stall and judge it by the amount of paper strewn on the ground which means it’s a popular place.
