A big musical-esque show on the history of Hoi An, from early settlers until the golden era as an important trading port. Huge stage, very good lighting effects and several hundred actors active at the same time. Situated on an island in the river. The whole island area surrounding the stage is a renaissance theme park with the same topic of the history of Hoi An. Leading up to the main show, there are mini-shows with reenactments and dance performances in different places around the theme park. Tickets can be bought when entering the island via the two bridges, or online (sometimes cheaper at Getyourguide or Klook due to promotions). Eco seats have a perfectly good view, no need for the higher classes. If possible, arrive at the main stage before 19:30 to queue for choosing a good seat.

The museum contains some old black and white photos of Hoi An taken in the early 20th century. It also houses an old cannon, some two-thousand year old pots from the Sa Huynh period, and a case full of 9th-century bricks and tiles from the Champa period.
