In Hoi An there are a handful of historic cultural sites in and around the old town area. There is also a nice beach nearby, but perhaps the most notable of all the characteristics of this town were all of the tailor shops. There were tons of them. So as to not miss out on such an important local tradition, we had a custom suit all done up for Jesse - Vietnam style.

I love shopping in Hoi An! One of my favorite little towns in the world, for sure. Be sure and try morning glory if you ever see it on the menu. It's basically a weed that grows in ditches, but when it's sauteed up with some garlic, it is awesome!
ReplyDeleteYes, indeed. I hadn't ever had morning glory until Cambodia. Delicious!
