Known as Faifo to early Western traders, it was one of South-East Asia's major international port during the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. In its heyday, Hoi An, a contemporary of Macau and Melaka, was an important port of call for Dutch, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese and other trading vessels. Vietnamese ships and sailors based in Hoi An sailed to all sections of Vietnam, as well as Thailand and Indonesia. Perhaps, more than any other place in Vietnam, Hoi An retains a sense of history that grows on you the more you explore it.
