VỊ HỘI AN: WHERE THE HOAI RIVER STANDS STILL Gazing out from Vi, the Hoai River unfolds like a soft silk ribbon, silently carrying the sediments of time. In this sanctuary, there is no need for haste. Simply sit and watch the rhythmic dip of the oars as they ripple the reflection of the ancient yellow houses. Only then can you truly feel the «soul» of Hoi An. As the afternoon sun melts into the waves, the heart finally finds its peaceful harbor.
