The Hoai River (a branch of the Thu Bon River) in Hoi An Ancient Town (Hoi An City, Quang Nam Province) has experienced high water levels, causing many pedestrian streets to be deeply flooded. When the flood season arrives in Hoi An, many tourists flock to the ancient town to experience wading through the floodwaters. Many enjoy renting boats to take a tour, admiring and photographing the centuries-old houses. Wading through the floodwaters and taking boat tours of Hoi An Ancient Town during the rainy season has become a popular " discovery " for many tourists.
As of around 7 a.m. this morning, the water level measured 1.52m, 0.02m above flood warning level 2, and is receding slowly. This is the second time this year that Hoi An ancient town has been flooded.
