Along tne River Bank in Hoi An

The river is very wide and fast flowing especially after the heavy rain. It is also prone to flooding. At other times the river is quite tranquil. Here is what we saw as we walked along the river bank to the old town.
                                                              Fishermen in a small boat
                                                    Reflections in the calm river
                                     Small boats that are used during floods to transport people
                                                    More boats
                                         View of the river from the Japanese Bridge
The placid river
                                          A cafe by the river bank
                                        Back of buildings fronting the river bank
                                          River boat that carries tourists along the river
                                         Shops across the other side of the river                                       
There are boatmen and women who often solicit tourists to board their small boats for a ride along the river. It's quite a busy river.
