According to the Organizing Committee, in the context of urban areas and tourist destinations increasingly focusing on sustainable development, Hoi An is considered a pioneering locality with many initiatives to protect the environment, reduce emissions and encourage the use of environmentally friendly vehicles.

The highlight of the program is the community cycling activity "Hoi An Green Heritage Journey" taking place on the morning of June 6. The motorcade will depart from Hoi An Park, passing through many routes and typical heritage points of the ancient town before ending at Thanh Ha Pottery Village.

Mr. Le Quoc Viet - Chairman of the Quang Destination Club, member of the Organizing Committee said: "With this year's series of activities, we want to build an open connection space, where ideas about responsible tourism, green transportation and community development are widely shared.

What makes the Week of Cycling - Hoi An 2026 special will not be the distance or number of participants but the connection spirit brought about by the event.

On that journey, there are local people, tourists, businesses, environmental lovers and even people who simply want to spend a day slowing down.

Ta đi xe đạp Week was initiated by Ashui.com in 2019 and maintained annually, becoming a community activity contributing to promoting green traffic culture in many localities across the country.
