Opening from 16:00 - 22:00, on Wednesday to Monday, Hoi An Impression Theme Park give you an opportunity to explore Hoi An's history. Enter through the Thanh Chiem Palace gates, a relic that hearkens back to the lavish abundance of the Nguyen Dynasty. Past the citadel gates, facsimiles of five traditional artisan villages present the five basic elements that keep the universe in balance: copper stands in for metal, carpentry for wood, pottery for earth, lantern-making for fire, and fishing for water. Continue through past fusions of Vietnamese, Japanese, and European architectural styles deeper into the park, where different areas offer different themes. A commercial trading port complete with shops, stalls, and bustling merchants represents the international trade of the 17th and 18th centuries. A Japanese village pays homage to the demographics of the time when a Japanese community left its mark on Hoi An’s culture through architecturally distinct buildings and bridges.
