Apart from rom relaxing beaches Hoi An is famous for it’s tailors. It was an old silk trading centre and has 400 or so tailors.

my daughters had been looking forward to this stop since they first heard about it. Watching Top gear Vietnam added to the excitement as The hosts had suits made here.

after a day relaxing at the pool we went in to Hoi An and visited the first reasonable sized tailors we saw. The girls looked through some catalogues and chose some outfits and then chose fabrics and got measure. I did the same and Nigel picked some suits. Afterwards they went to the shoemakers nexus door and got some shoes and boots made too. It took 3 fittings in all to get everything done but the girls especially were very happy.
