UXOs are explosive weapons, such as bombs and grenades that still pose a risk after they were used.

Much of the food waste here is composted, recycled or reused. The rest of the afternoon is free for your own explorations. Maybe wander to the Central Market and browse the paintings, woodwork, ceramics and lanterns. Hoi An is also famous for its talented tailors, so if you’ve been wearing the same shirt every day (who hasn’t), why not hit one of the same-day tailors and get yourself something new?

Maybe take advantage of the early morning by checking out the markets and tucking into a bowl of pho with the local traders.
