One of the most fun and colourful places that I’ve visited is the town of Hoi An in Vietnam. It used to be a traders port so everything is built along the water and the streets of the old town are lined with really cool old buildings that used to be the homes and shops of merchants. The best part about the town, however, is that at night it is completely lit up with strings of lanterns along the buildings and across the streets.

In one of the night markets in town, you can actually find a few shops where you can buy these same lanterns. It’s kind of a grab for tourists, but the shops make for some colourful photos.
