Morning light slants across narrow lanes as a small convoy of bicycles slips out of Hoi An’s Old Town toward Tra Que village. The road hums with scooters and the soft thud of farmers’ tools; herbs lean toward the path as if to offer their scent. Within twenty minutes the town noise thins and paddies open like quiet pages, water buffalo inspecting strangers with mild curiosity.
