Traditional Boats Docked Alongside the Ancient Canals of Hoi An

Nested along an ancient canal that slices through historic Hoi An town are numerous traditional wooden boats moored side by side. These vessels have weather-beaten hulls painted in earthy tones while some feature splashes of blue or green inside. Reflective water mirrors not only the boats but also the charming yellow façades lining the riverside, punctuated by terracotta roofs under a sky scattered with wispy clouds.
