Museum of History and Culture Frommer's Highly Recommended

Hours Daily 8am-5pm
Address 7 Nguyen Hue St
Location 7 is the official address, but it's actually the building on the south side of 11 Nguyen Hue St

Frommer's Review

This tottering building erected in 1653 houses works that cross 2,000 years of Hoi An history from Cham relics to ancient ceramics and photos of local architecture. There are English explanations, but they are scanty. If you're seeing only one museum, make it the Museum of Trade Ceramics . One interesting tidbit: The name Hoi An literally means "water convergence" and "peace."

Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
