(HBO) - During a week-long Lunar New Year (Tet) holiday from January 23-29 or the 29th day of the last month of the previous lunar year – fifth day of the first lunar month, Hoa Binh province welcomed about 95,000, including 4,100 foreigners. The total tourism revenue was estimated at 42 billion VND.
From the first day of the Year of the Rat, many tourists visit the
Vietnamese Scientists’ Heritage
Park in Cao Phong
district.
Ahead of the Tet holiday, the provincial
Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism instructed local city and districts
as well as tourist sites to ensure facilities, security and order, food safety
and hygiene to welcome tourists. Carrying out the Vietnam National
Administration of Tourism on the implementation of preventive measures against the
acute respiratory disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus (2019 – nCoV),
the provincial department issued instructions asking local tourism operators to
strictly carry out necessary measures in anticipation of the disease.
Besides, to attract domestic and
foreign visitors, numerous tourist sites in the province organised New Year
celebration programmes and festivals such as the Vietnamese Scientists’ Heritage
Park and Khanh Pagoda festival in Cao Phong and Lac Thuy Pagoda festival in Lac
Thuy./.
Hoa Binh has taken measures, focusing on removing barriers in terms of mechanism, policy, infrastructure, and upgrading technical infrastructure facilities serving tourism and the quality of human resources, to promote tourism development in the Hoa Binh Lake area.
Over the past time, Da Bac has deployed measures to lure more domestic and foreign visitors to the locality, aiming to turn tourism into the district’s economic spearhead.
Covering an area of over 52,000 hectares spanning districts of Mai Chau, Tan Lac, Cao Phong, Da Bac, and Hoa Binh City, Hoa Binh lake has strong potential for tourism development. In recent years, thanks to the attention of local Party Committees and authorities as well as support from international organisations, the advantages of tourism in the lake area have been utilised.
Mai Chau is a mountainous district and home to many ethnic groups such as Thai, Muong, Kinh, Mong, Dao, and Tay with distinctive cultural identities, creating a diverse and unique cultural treasure. Aware of its advantages, the district has paid attention to the preservation and promotion of ethnic groups’ cultural values so that culture will become a leverage for tourism and contribute to socio-economic development and life quality improvement.
