Day 3 | Chuon Lagoon Floating Market – Bao Vinh Old Town – Rural Cooking Experience
Wake before sunrise for one of Hue’s most authentic cultural experiences. Travel to Chuon Lagoon, part of the vast Tam Giang Lagoon system, where local fishermen gather at the colorful floating market as the first light of day reflects across the calm water. Cruise through the lively market by small wooden boat, observing daily life as vendors trade fresh seafood, vegetables, and local specialties directly from their boats.
After enjoying a traditional breakfast prepared by local families, continue to the charming riverside settlement of Bao Vinh Old Town, once one of Central Vietnam’s busiest trading ports. Wander through quiet streets lined with beautifully preserved wooden houses and colonial architecture while learning about Hue’s fascinating commercial history.
Later, visit a nearby farming village where you’ll join local hosts in harvesting fresh herbs and vegetables before participating in a hands-on cooking class. Learn to prepare authentic Hue specialties using recipes passed down through generations before sharing the meal together in true Vietnamese family style. Return to Hue in the late afternoon with time to relax or enjoy an optional spa treatment. (bestpricetravel.com)
