Readers rated cities on their sights and landmarks, culture, cuisine, friendliness, shopping, and overall value.
 
The ancient town has a variety of offerings and was described as “a little gem of a place”. For some, it’s the shopping, where you can have anything made to order. For others, it’s the food, praised as the best in Vietnam, with amazing vegetarian and vegan options. Moreover, Hội An is so accessible because the inner part of the town is restricted and cars aren’t allowed, so one can stroll around visiting shops and markets and enjoying its atmosphere by the river.
