We had a lovely morning with the kids visiting the terracotta park. Only 10-15 minute cab ride from central hoian and a great way to spend a few hours. Lots of history and sculpture with the museum, gallery and gardens. The kids learnt pottery on the wheel with local artists who are reviving the ancient Cham peoples practise of storytelling through ceramics, sculpture and architecture. A little gem of a place.

GAM Gemstone Art Museum & Winebar

GAM is not just a museum. Our concept is to create a synergistic space where visitors can explore the beauty of gemstones, and seek some sanctuary from the heat of the day in this magnificent example of a 19th century Chinese merchant's home. Savor a cafe or a glass of wine in the quiet garden courtyard; sip a glass of champagne or fresh juice in the first floor lounge, surrounded by sculptures; or simply sit on the balcony soaking in the most beautiful view of Hoi An's ancient rooftops and riverine life. After your drink, take time to peruse Duong's range of contemporary jewelry inside the museum. All of our spaces merge seamlessly to form a unique aesthetic experience.

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed visiting this art museum and wine bar. The staff and business owners were so friendly and welcoming. The cocktails were the best we had experienced in Vietnam, my favourite ones were the Mimosa and Dry Martini.
