With a long history and ancient traditions, Vietnam has many historic attractions and old temples.

Hoi An Ancient Town:

This little port town is in an incredible state of preservation present on the coastal plain of Quang Nam Province, about 30 km south of Danang City offering some of the most densely-concentrated sites in Vietnam tour with its old streets bordered with ancient houses and auditoriums, its temples, pagodas, ancient wells and tombs. They are added together, more than a thousand places of interest.

Set in a quiet environment, Hoi An is surrounded by peaceful villages and this old town had developed into a melting pot of various nationalities who came into the area, bringing in their own cultures.
Consequently, Hoi An features the co-existence of indigenous customs and habits and those imported by foreign settlers.

Complex of Hue Monuments:

Complex of Hue Monuments lies along the Perfume River in Hue City and some adjacent areas of Thua Thien Hue Province. Hue City comprises the political, cultural and economic centre of the province, and was the age-old imperial city of Vietnam.

Hue was the capital of unified Vietnam. During these years, architectural works of a high cultural and historic value were built: the Citadel, especially the Imperial City, Royal tomb of the Nguyen Dynasty, the Ho Quyen arena and the Hon Chen Temple.

My Son Sanctuary:

My Son Sanctuary is set in a small valley belonging to Duy Xuyen District, Duy Phu Commune, Quang Nam Province, about 40km from Hoi An City and 70km southwest of Danang City.

The temples in My Son were built into groups that basically followed the same model. Each group is surrounded by towers and auxiliary monuments that attract travellers travelling to Vietnam.
