(HBO) – As the largest man-made lake in Southeast Asia, Hoa Binh lake has a poetic natural landscape with many small islands, which earns it the reputation as "Ha Long Bay on land.” The lake, which spreads across Hoa Binh city and four districts, is located inside the north’s key tourism area and a master plan to develop it into a national tourism site has been approved by the Prime Minister.
Mai Chau Hideaway tourism
site in Suoi Lon hamlet, Tan Mai commune, Mai Chau district, offers interesting
experiences to holidaymakers.
Hoa Binh province has adopted a thematic resolution and a specific
plan on tourism development around Hoa Binh lake, aiming to build services
meeting basic standards of a national tourism site by 2025. By 2030, the site
is expected to officially become a national tourism site equipped with synchronous
and modern technical infrastructure, with high-quality, diverse tourism
products. It is set to become the province’s biggest tourism centre and one of
the 12 key tourism zones of the northern mountainous region.
Many businesses have shown interest in investing in tourism around
Hoa Binh lake. Dai Doanh Company, for example, has scoped out Ngoi Hoa and Hien
Luong communes, and asked for permission from the province to compile a dossier
on investment in forestation in combination with leisure and eco-tourism in
Hien Luong commune.
Hanbek Company is considering a project on leisure tourism, with a cable
car system and entertainment facilities in Thai Thinh commune and Thai Binh
ward, Hoa Binh city.
Hoa Binh Tourism JSC is deploying a high-end leisure and eco-tourism
project in Sung island in Tien Phong commune, Da Bac district, which is
expected to welcome the first visitors in 2019 targeting the high-income
tourist segment.
The province hopes to attract investors to develop tourism products
unique to the locality such as spiritual tourism at Thac Bo Temple in Cao Phong
and Da Bac districts and Doi Co Temple in Hien Luong commune, Da Bac district,
along with high-quality leisure and eco-tourism in Sung island, Tien Phong
commune, Da Bac district, and community-based tourism in Ngoi, Tru, Ke and Da
Bia hamlets./.
On the occasion of the Lunar New Year, visitors from near and far are eager to come to the mountainous district of Da Bac to have unique cultural experiences such as learning to wrap traditional cakes of ethnic minorities, practicing writing ancient Tay characters or immersing themselves in the Tay melodies.
Tan Lac has great potential for tourism development. In addition, the Provincial Party Committee issued Resolution No. 13-NQ/TU, dated October 17, 2022, on building the highland communes in Tan Lac district into provincial-level tourism areas by 2030, with a vision to 2050. However, according to the assessment, implementing the goals in the spirit of Resolution No. 13-NQ/TU has had limited results.
Recognising that tourism and agriculture are local strengths, Mai Chau district is committed to building a green economy through an action program with specific pathways, achieving notable results in line with the resolution of the 26th Party Congress of the district.
With its majestic natural landscapes, diverse ethnic cultures, and numerous unique festivals, Hoa Binh province is an attractive destination that entices travellers from far and wide to explore and experience during the Lunar New Year (Tet) holiday.
Being held around the 30th of the 11th lunar month right after the harvest season ends, the traditional New Year of Mong ethnic group lasts until the last day of the 12th lunar month. On this occasion, the community tourism destinations of Pa Co and Hang Kia communes (Mai Chau) attract many visitors to experience and explore the unique customs of New Year.
Located just a 20-minute drive from Hoa Binh City, Ora Hill Farmstay & Glamping Hoa Binh is a captivating new destination nestled in Mo hamlet, Bình Thanh commune, Cao Phong district.
