The price of a ticket to enter the ancient town of Hoi An was increased by 30% on November 1, as announced by Quang Nam province’s authorities.

According to the new regulation, which officials say will secure all the relics and vestiges, the price is VND120.000 (US5.76)/ 6 visited relics, replacing the former price of VND90.000 (US$4.32)/ 5 visited places. This equates to VND20.000 (US$0.96) per visited place per person.

The province also listed places where tourists will need to have a ticket to gain admission, including Cau Pagoda, Cam Pho Temple, local museums, ancient houses, the XQ embroidery workshop and tombs of Japanese businessmen Gusokukun, Tani Yajirobei and Banjaro, and a few other locations.

In related news, since April, the ticket price for the ancient citadel of Hue has also doubled. The price for getting into the royal palace and the tombs of the Tu Duc, Minh Mang and Khai Dinh Kings has increased from VND55,000 ($2.2) to VND80,000 ($4) per person, while ticket prices for museums, the Hon Chen and An Dinh palaces and the tombs of the Dong Khanh and Thieu Tri Kings has risen from VND22,000 ($1.1) to VND40,000 ($2).
