The picturesque scenery of Hoa Binh Lake has endowed its tourism site with a unique allure. In recent years, localities have been harnessing the potential of the lake area and domestic and international tourists have chosen the site for sightseeing and leisure journeys.
The Hoa Binh Lake tourism area is expected to become a national tourism site by 2030, focusing on developing synchronous and modern technical facilities, and high-quality and branded tourism products imbued with national cultural identities. The tourist site also aims to become the largest tourist centre in the province, and one of 12 key tourist areas in the Northern midland and mountainous region
On April 5th, in Hoa Binh city, the Tourism Association of Hoa Binh province and Tourism Association of Ba Ria - Vung Tau province jointly organized a conference to promote cooperation and tourism development. There was the attendance of Mr. Nguyen Van Toan, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee.
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.
