The river meanders through Hoi An Ancient Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where it is bordered by notable landmarks such as the Japanese Covered Bridge and Hoi An Central Market. Visitors can explore the riverside, taking in the sights and sounds of this historic waterway, which continues to be a central feature of the town’s cultural and economic life.
