Wading in the water to see Hoi An during the flood season

Translated by Bing
Many streets along the Hoai River were flooded due to the impact of rain and flood discharge, tourists still waded in the water to visit.

On the afternoon of November 25, Hoi An ancient town did not rain, but along the Hoai River, Bach Dang Street, Nguyen Phuc Chu, Cong Nu Ngoc Hoa, the river water rose and flooded, the deepest place was about 40 cm. Many foreign tourists sit on a cyclo to experience flooding in the old town.


From the night of November 24, the Song Tranh 2 hydropower plant at the headwaters of the Thu Bon River, more than 100 km from Hoi An, discharged floods from 646-1,116 m3/s, causing the downstream water level to rise, overflowing into the streets.


The Korean delegation laughed when wading through the floodwaters. Many customers are not afraid to roll up their pants, carry sandals, wade through the flooded road almost to their knees.


Other guests chose to move on the sidewalk to avoid the floodwaters. This is the deepest flood since the beginning of the year, compared to previous years, this flood is small. The flood peak in Hoi An recorded 1.13 m above alarm 1 of 13 cm.


The Korean delegation listened to the explanation of Hoi An ancient town near the Cau Pagoda area, the water of the Hoai River was ankle-deep.


Although many sections of roads are flooded, tourists still look for Hoi An ancient town.


Some tourist boat owners still carry tourists and release lanterns on the Hoai River.


In the late afternoon, tourists crowded to the banks of the Hoai River. They followed the unflooded sidewalks to visit.


In the evening, Hoi An is red with lanterns, many tourists wade through the water to explore the old town.
