Before you go
What the guide flags for wheelchair users.
- Thresholds everywhere; plan to see from the street. (Good for · verdict: hard)
- Flat and partly car-free, which helps; but raised thresholds at every house and hall, broken paving and evening crowds make wheels hard at peak times. Early morning is the easiest window, and many sights can be seen from the street. (Accessibility · summary)
- Lanes: Level; raised thresholds (often 20–40 cm) into old houses and halls. (Accessibility)
- Transport: App cars to the old-town edge; electric carts and cyclos inside (check whether carts take wheelchairs). (Accessibility)
- Hotels: Many boutique hotels are low-rise with ground-floor rooms; ask for photos of the entrance and bathroom. (Accessibility)
- Japanese Covered Bridge: Steps at both ends; view from the street is fine. (Accessibility · fit: poor)
- Tân Kỳ Old House: High thresholds and a narrow front room. (Accessibility · fit: poor)
