How to Get to Hoi An Central Market’s Food Hall
The Hoi An Central Market lies within the Hoi An Old Town world heritage area. To get there, visitors can walk or use the bicycle, car, taxi, E-taxi, hotel shuttle bus, motorcycle, or minivan.
From hotels or places in Minh An/Cam Pho/Son Phong areas, Hoi An Central Market is within a walking distance. We advise going along main roads because of wide pavements (can avoid the traffic, esp if traveling with kids). To get around and sightsee other attractions in the Old quarters, walking is needed and the best way as well.
If like to use the bicycle, visitors can cycle to Hoi An Central Market anytime during the day. From Minh An, Cam Pho, Cam Chau, Son Phong, and a part of Cam Nam, the distance is less than 3km. From An Bang beach area, it will be 5 km. At many hotels in Hoi An, the bicycle is free to use for the guests.
If can’t walk or ride the bicycle, getting a taxi or E-taxi is the most convenient way to reach Hoi An Central Market. Visitors will pay 15,000-20,000 VND for each kilometer. E-taxi charges the passenger by both distance and number of people.
The nearest car parking lot to Quan Cong Temple/Quan Am Pagoda/Minh Huong Communal House/Hainan Assembly Hall/Teochew Assembly Hall is at the crossroad Phan Chu Trinh street vs Hoang Dieu street (aka Hoang Dieu parking lot). From there, a very short walk is needed to see the ticket office, and then go to temples.
Because Hoi An Central Market isn’t in the pedestrian area, therefore visitors can go to it by motorbike anytime during the day. It’s possible to park around its entrance (sure, free). However, we still recommend parking in a place with a service. The reason is that you will need to see/do something in the town as well (for example, picking up custom suits, eating,…).
Some beachside resorts organize free shuttle bus to the Hoi An Old Town everyday, so please remember to check its timetable, pick up and drop off points. After coming to town, just walk to the communal house.
From Da Nang city, the distance to the Hoi An Old Town is some 30km. It will be longer if stay in Son Tra Peninsula and shorter if stay in Non Nuoc Beach area. Motorcycle, car, taxi, van, and bus are all available to get to the town and then Hoi An Central Market.
