What to do in Hoi An Old Town for free?

In Hoi An Old Town, there are plenty of free activities that offer just as much impression as paid museums. Here's what you can do without spending a single dong:

1. Walk along Bach Dang Embankment. From here, you get classic postcard views of the river, boats, and historic facades. Perfect for sunset photos.
2. Get lost in the network of narrow streets. Simply walk without a map along Tran Phu, Nguyen Thai Hoc streets, enjoy the architecture, peek into souvenir shops, and observe local life.
3. See the Japanese Bridge (Cau Chua Pagoda). The bridge itself, a symbol of Hoi An, can be viewed and photographed for free. A fee is only charged for entry into the small chapel inside.
4. Walk across the bridge to An Hoi Island. This pedestrian bridge, decorated with lanterns, is an attraction in itself. On the island, there is a night market open for free visits in the evening.
5. Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the lantern street. In the evening, Nguyen Thi Minh Khai street turns into a magical tunnel of glowing silk lanterns. This is a must-see!
6. Visit the markets. Stop by Hoi An Market during the day for color and shopping, and on An Hoi Island in the evening for street food and atmosphere.

As you can see, the main charm of Hoi An lies in its free atmosphere. Find more ideas and inspiration in our detailed guide: Old Town in Hoi An: how to visit, opening hours and cost
