Hoi An with Earth Hour 2014

A lot of cultural and flower floating performances in the Ancient Town and along the Hoai River will commemorate the Earth Hour 2014 on March 29.

Before the Earth Hour, many activities will be held in the city. With “One hour for a cleaner Hội An”, local people will join to clean rubbish all the town; especially there will be a “Slow biking competition”  in Hoang Diweu Street.

An art performance will be held at Hoai River Square, while a lot of floating lanterns will be released on the river.

And in the program "City without Electric Light", Hoi An will switch off its lights for an hour between 8.30pm to 9.30pm this Saturday. All ancient streets will light up with candies and oil lamps during that hour.
