It's not all old buildings. Before we look at some more, let's visit the market. Hoi An boasts a thriving market, and it definitely is not just for the tourists. In fact, if you visit early in the morning, you might feel a little in the way. The market is open all day, so visit around mid-day when things are a little slow. It will work up your appetite for lunch!

People come from all over to sell their wares. And they come on all forms of transportation. The market not only sells fruit and vegetables, but also fish. There's a dock where fishermen unload their catch and everyone gathers round to buy it up. There's no picture because you just can't get close to the action!

The market is a good place for people watching, although it is a bit hard to not feel in the way.
