The heart of the city of Hoi An is the old center full of curving pedestrian streets and shops in the Chinese style. The center is unique because it represents a mix from the styles of Chinese, Japanese, Indians and the Dutch work. The houses are mostly made of wood and are a combination of traditional Vietnamese style. Because there are water channels dug around the river Thu Bon in which the city lies, Hoi An is also called the Venice of Vietnam.
