(HBO) - In collaboration with the provincial Cooperatives, Quang Minh Cooperative of Tourism Transport has launched a pilot operation of 4 wheel electric vehicles to transport tourists to visit Mai Chau district. There were Mr. Nguyen Quang Thang, the Vice Chairman of the District People's Committee and representatives of some related departments attending the ceremony.
With the advantage of famous cultural and
ecological tourism and craft village, in the recent years, Mai Chau has always
been an attractive tourist destination for domestic and international tourists
to visit and relax. In 2018, Mai Chau district has welcomed over 332,000
visitors, including 132,500 international visitors and nearly 200,000 domestic
visitors, the total revenue of tourism is estimated at over 107.6 billion VND.
The development of tourism has also brought many shortcomings, especially many
homestays and individuals have massively bought 4 wheel electric vehicles
without registration for passenger transport, at a time in the district there
are over 100 passenger cars. Due to that fact, on November 26th, Mai
Chau district officially decided to set up Quang Minh Cooperative with 7
members obtaining electric cars to serve tourists traveling in short distances
to the tourist destinations in Chieng Chau commune and Mai Chau town.
The leaders of Mai Chau district and related
departments cut off the opening band of the electric car service.
To congratulate Quang Minh Cooperative of
Tourism and Transport, Mr. Nguyen Quang Thang, the Vice Chairman of the
District People's Committee, requested the participating units to fully comply
with the provisions of the law on land road traffic; vehicles must be
registered, registry and meet all technical safety conditions, the driver must
also have a driving license as prescribed. They must not conflicts for
passengers, the fare will be collected as prescribed and they must absolutely
ensure traffic safety and environmental sanitation. Relevant agencies and units
need to be facilitated and identify stopovers, picking up and parking lots to
ensure the interests of cooperatives operating in accordance with current
regulations.
The delegates are experiencing the service of
4-wheel drive of Quang Minh Cooperative of Tourism and Transport.
This is a clean, fuel-efficient,
environmentally friendly transport vehicle. The operation of 4 wheel
electric-powered cars is currently of great interest to many local people. It
not only reduces environmental pollution, builds a civilized and modern tourism
image but also creates jobs for the local people. Moreover, it contributes to
overcoming the chaos in the management of electric cars today.
Hoa Binh province’s rich natural and cultural resources position it as a prime location for developing community-based tourism (CBT). In recent years, support from central and provincial policies, as well as assistance from non-governmental organisations, have encouraged local ethnic minority and mountainous communities to actively engage in the sector.
Van Son Commune, Tan Lạc district, Hoa Binh province also known as "Cloud Valley," boasts a cool climate, stunning natural landscapes, and majestic scenery. Visitors who have been to this place should make a stop at Chien Hamlet to experience a lot of fascinating things and feel the friendly, warmth of the Muong ethnic people.
Thanks to the effective exploitation of natural landscape and the cultural diversity of ethnic minorities, Hoa Binh province has become an attractive destination for tourists seeking experiences and exploration.
The Department of Cultural Heritage has just coordinated with the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Hoa Binh province to organize a training on implementing the model of the cultural heritage connected in the cultural tourism journey in Cao Phong and Lac Son districts.
The Sung village in Cao Son commune, Da Bac district, is endowed with pristine natural landscape, and Dao Tien ethnic minority community in the village preserves rich cultural heritage, including traditional housing, clothing, language, scripts, customs, and daily life practices. Since the community-based tourism model was introduced in the locality, these traditional cultural values have been further preserved and promoted.
