(HBO) - Bestowed with breathtaking landscapes, fresh air, and unique cultural features, Hoa Binh province’s Tan Lac district, about 100 kilometres from Hanoi, is an ideal destination for those who love the Muong ethnic minority culture and seek peace and tranquillity.
Capitalising

have opened homestays.
Renovating their
home while retaining their ethnic minority identity, Ha Thi Tham’s family was
among the pioneers in developing community-based tourism. Prior to COVID-19, she
welcomed an average of 15-20 visitors on weekends.
The owner of
the Hai Than homestay in Chien hamlet, Van Son commune, Tham said her homestay has
welcomed an increasing number of guests since the pandemic was brought under
control.
"Most tourists are satisfied with our homestay services and impressed by local
people’s hospitality, the temperate climate, adventurous trekking trails, and the
mysterious beauty of Nam Son Cave,” she added.
Visitors should not miss Lung Van Market, where an array of local staples are
sold by regional traders, including Nam Son tangerines, Quyet Chien chayote,
and brocade.
The highland area of Tan Lac includes Van Son, Ngo Luong, and Quyet Chien
communes, which are adjacent to primaeval forests. All boast excellent cultural
features, stunning terraced rice fields, and beautiful waterfalls.
According to Le Chi Huyen, Vice Chairman of the Tan Lac District People’s
Committee, as the district boasts huge potential for tourism development, it is
also an ideal destination for investment in ecotourism, resort tourism, and
experiential tourism.

sharpening the focus on developing key tourism destinations in mountainous
areas and creating attractive tourism products, to contribute to improving
local livelihoods./.
