Vegetable garden off the road between Hoi An and An Bang beach - perfect in the early morning or late afternoon light. Come by bicycle. The locals are friendly and welcoming.

Tra Que vegetable village is a source of fresh vegetables for Hoi An and an interesting stop if you’re cycling towards An Bang beach from the old town. Many of vast number of herbs and vegetables that find their way into Vietnam's delicious cuisine are grown here. And it’s all said to be organic too.

The people are friendly and the whole place is peaceful and beautiful. There are small tourist eateries and cooking classes run around the garden.

Some in the locals mentioned that the surrounding hotels and other tourist developments are slowly encroaching on garden land. It’s a problem all over Hoi An.

Travel tips
Best visited in the early morning or late afternoon. A number of companies offer tours and cooking classes at Tra Que.
