Rice fields
Just a short distance from the bustling Ancient Town, the rice fields of Hoi An offer a tranquil, open-air escape where visitors can cycle or walk along winding paths and witness the quintessential Vietnamese rural landscape. Depending on the season, these expansive paddies transform from mirror-like flooded fields to vibrant green carpets and finally to a sea of shimmering gold just before harvest. See more details
Water buffalo ride
In Vietnam, water buffalo is primarily used for plowing and harrowing the wet rice paddies and transporting crops across the countryside.
In Hoi An, water buffalo ride is an authentic and gentle eco-tourism experience that allows visitors to sit on the back of a buffalo while touring the tranquil, waterlogged rice paddies and witnessing the traditional farming landscape.
If do not want to ride the water buffalo, you can see it and take pictures with it, or simply skip this activity.
