Hoi is best known as the "town of tailors." My boys had 5 suits made here between them and the choice of fabrics was "to die for." They ended up getting their suits made in various styles and colours and chose wool cashmere as it's such a gorgeous weight and is great for all seasons. Apart from this precious commodity it also has the most mesmerising architecture with it's beautiful facades of muted colours. It's an Ancient Town, very mysterious and steeped in not only Vietnamese culture but also the French and Japanese influence is ever so present which is a delight to the senses!
