Arts & Culture

Puhoi is an historical village with a lovely open church, museum, tiny, tiny library and a market the first Sunday of every month. The old pub is very much the same as it has been for several generations, and is a curiosity in itself. There is a delightful shop selling things of French origin. It is picturesque with a river running through.
