Favorite Place

Hoi An will always be a special place to me not only because of its raw beauty, but due to the fact that it is my hometown. Although I left this place at a young age, my memories will never fail to bring me back. I especially loved the night scenes and how the river would always hold the reflection of the moon in its flowing arms. People were always out and about once the sun had set because there was less heat and so there was a cheerful atmosphere from the hustle and bustle (imagine lots of children running around while giggling, grown-ups conversing, and occasional voices and sounds from the night market), albeit rather crowded. It has been a long time since I have returned, but looking at pictures of Hoi An brings back a sweet kind of nostalgia as I reminisce about my childhood.
