Tra Que Vegetable Village – 7 mins

Nestled next to the peaceful Cổ Cò river, the lush green Trà Quế vegetable village is more than 300 years old.

This place is about 3km northeast of Hoi An city center, spreading nearby 40 hectares. The vegetable village is rotated and intercropped by households with more than 20 different types of leafy vegetables and spices; considered the largest vegetable granary in the Quang Nam – Da Nang area. Specializes in providing clean, organic vegetables all year round and is also a unique destination not to be missed when traveling to Hoi An.

In the beginning, the village grew many types of herbs, including a vegetable called Nhự Quế, which has the strong scent of cinnamon. In the 19th century, King Gia Long had the opportunity to visit and enjoy the taste of vegetables here, so he named the village Tra Que. That name has been passed down and used to this day.

On April 4, 2022, Tra Que vegetable village was officially recognized by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage. Since then, it has become an interesting tourist destination, attracting many domestic and foreign tourists.
