Already a common stop for backpackers, it is becoming better known to tourists. On the 14th day of each lunar month, the town trades its electric lights for traditional colored lanterns. Sights include the Japanese Covered Bridge and the Quan Cong Temple. Let the town’s expert tailors make you some bespoke clothing.

Beautiful store, beautiful products. I and my sister made wonderful purchases, with great advice from store staff, during a lovely visit to Hoi An a couple of years ago. I also recently ordered online and had a great experience with that too. The design of the clothes is unique, very elegant, exquisite use of Vietnamese culture, and the fabrics are very high quality. These clothes are not cheap, but absolutely worth the price. I can't wait for the day when I can go back to Hoi An and shop at Metiseko in person again!

Hong's Cloth Shop

Our small shop is situated in the famous Hoi An Ancient town right next to the market. Looking for a custom made suit, dress, shirt, pants, skirt? You name it I can do it! Come in, choose your fabric color and style and get measured. Then come back the next day for a second fitting to make sure the clothes fit just right. I will then make the final tweaks to your garment.

Hoi An is awash with tailors wanting to make you something and we were feeling a bit shellshocked when my husband saw a material he liked for a shirt. He asked the price and it was honoured even though he wanted a linen / silk fabric and different colour inserts in collar and cuffs. We were so impressed by the service and the very nice lady that I bought a dress too. This was 6pm and we were told to come back the next day at 11am for a fitting. Well, they both fitted us perfectly and we walked away happy having been given great advice and service. If you are not sure where to try you can feel safe with this family firm.

We were in Hoi an for a few days and decided to pop in to get a couple of whacky shirts made on a whim. The shop was so good - great staff, great service, free beers and an excellent selection of materials, that we wound up getting over 10 made for us and a few friends over the next few days. All ours fit perfectly, and they even managed to get the fit right for our friends despite only being able to go off our vague size mining. 100% would recommend, and will definitely visit again if I'm ever back in Hoi an.

I have visited this shop on 2 different occasions, and both times I have been blown away. The girls are very friendly, not pushy and very stylish with amazing service! I have bought 3 different dresses from them - I love every single one of them as the materials are lovely and they fit perfectly. Such an easy service as the clothes are made for you within 24 hours so even if you are not staying long it ensures you can still buy something. The prices are fair and overall it is a lovely experience to visit as they make sure you are perfectly happy with your purchase before you leave. I would recommend this shop to anyone!!

Well established at the most prestigious bespoke tailor and shoe-maker in Hoi An.

Ms. Quynh’s determination has immortalised the craft of traditional tailoring and Yaly has become a world renowned institution with three beautiful Hoi An tailors in the old town, providing high standard workshops and the best professional training for each of its valued employees.

Precious Heritage by Rehahn

A 500m2 display of photos and artifacts collected during the last 8 years of Rehahn's exploration of Vietnam. Entrance for this cultural experience is Free In English, French and Vietnamese

Reviewed By ilarialuceripoll - Jakarta, Indonesia

This is definitely a not-to-be-missed gem in Hoi An. Forget the ethnographic and history museums in Hanoi and Saigon, this is the place to truly learn about the different people who inhabit Vietnam. Réhahn is truly passionate about showcasing and preserving the rich heritage of all the ethnic groups in the country, and he has managed to personally assemble a wonderfully extensive collection of traditional costumes and other artefacts. These are presented better than in any museum we have seen here, with detailed explanations for each and—huge bonus—fantastic portraits of villagers. The gallery is free and has set up a couple of humanitarian projects entirely financed through the sale of the gorgeous photographs and books. Absolutely worthwhile spending an hour or so here, and if you happen to be in luck and visit when Rehahn is actually there himself you are in for an extra treat.

Ly Ly Art Gallery

Reviewed By 29MariaR29 - Chicago, United States

We had the pleasure of buying a wonderful oil on canvas from Ly Ly Gallery in Hoi An today. Ly Ly opened her gallery up just for us as after we called her to say we were in the area and wanted to check out her inventory. She couldn’t do enough for us in terms of offering ideas, options and packing solution that would make it the 30 hours travel trip back home! Run don’t walk to this gem of a find.
