Tourlane’s ranking is based on four criteria: pedestrian space, age of establishment, entrance fees, and popularity on Instagram.

Hoi An tops the list for Asia due to its well-preserved 16th-century architecture, affordable entrance fees of 2 EUR ($ 2.36), and a pedestrian-friendly layout.

Other destination in the top five are Bhaktapur (Nepal), Kyoto (Japan), Luang Prabang (Laos), and Galle (Sri Lanka).
