Park in front of Hoi An Market

#VietnamTravel #HoiAn #CôngViênĐènLồng Công viên Đèn Lồng Right next to the market, next to the park in the center of Hoi An, right next to the ancient city, why isn't this place called 'Park Market Street'? Why is it called 'Lantern Park'? Since when, lanterns have become the symbolic image of Hoi An. For centuries, Hoi An has flourished as an important trading port, and various cultures such as China, Japan, and Europe have infiltrated the city. Among them, lanterns, which were strongly influenced by China, have brightened the streets of Hoi An over time, adding to the unique atmosphere of the city. However, it is not clear when lanterns became the symbol of this city. Perhaps, hundreds of years ago, lanterns, which were simply a means of lighting to brighten up the darkness, have transformed into an element that creates the romantic and mysterious atmosphere of Hoi An today.
