Hoi An

HoiAnBridge.jpg
Hoi An is a small village on the otherside of Danang from Hue. It is totally worth the visit. It is a lovely little town. There are old buildings to see, shopping, good food, easy to get around, and many tailors to custom make your clothing.

I did get a pair of pants made for about $12. They unfortunately are only about as good as I would get off the rack. In other words, with my big disproportionate ass, they don't fit that well. So, I need to wear a belt. I would avoid this shop which is just a few doors down from the Minh A Guesthouse at 2 Nguyen Thai Hoc. Besides the ill fitting pants, I had other problems with them fixing a hole in a backpack and wondered if they had ever sewn before. (They sewed the whole pocket shut which rendered it useless.)
