The name Hội An(Hoi An) initially signifies ‘peaceful meeting place’ and the town was historically known as Faifo in English and other European languages. The Cham (individuals of Champa) controlled the spice trade between the 7th and 10th centuries and the business brought enormous riches during that period. By the beginning of 17th century, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, Indian, Filipino, Indonesian, Thai, French, British, and American ships would come and go, while Chinese and Japanese dealers rented waterfront houses in the seaside town.
The residents of Hội An burn incense and ignite small lanterns under the presence of full moonlight and float them on the river. The most wonderful and sparkling perspective comes when the river’s water is loaded up with colorful lanterns. This lantern celebration stays unchanged in hundreds of years and has become the most brilliant time to attract the guests from over the world. Google’s new doodle indicates how the covered Japanese bridge and its front water looks illuminated when colorful lanterns are floated under the full moonlight.
