Cam Thanh Discovery Tour

 

When coming to Hoi An, visitors not only have the opportunity to discover a world’s cultural heritage site (with a set of architectural works forming an antique town as a lively museum) but also to enjoy fresh air in a biosphere reserve and experience pleasant local life with local people in eco-villages.

 

Sailing downstream on the Hoai River, about 5 km from the center of Hoi An Old Town, there is an endless nipa palm forest of hundreds of hectares called “Nipa palm forest”. This place currently preserves historical architectural heritage of special value, highlights heroic in time of war and is a unique ecological site with flooded forest and charming landscape.

 

Visiting the nipa palm forest, visitors will be amazed with a vast and interminable forest and low-roof-houses made from nipa palm. It will be an amazing experience to row a boat on canals and to feel the pure air, spot the fish below and stork’s nests above. It will be interesting to discover and experience the life as a farmer or a fisherman and take part in local life by participating in a coracle race, visiting a nipa palm forest, growing rice, spreading a net, playing traditional games, enjoying fresh sea food on boat, visiting villages and having a view of the harbor in grey dusk.

 

Come to Hoi An – a charming ancient town and experience ecological tours to the nipa palm forest full of interesting impressions and sights.
