(HBO) – Vu Duy Bong, Chairman of the An Thinh Real Estate joint Stock Company, decided to set foot in the tourism sector in 2014. He grasped all stocks and owned the Hoa Binh Tourist joint Stock Company.
Having great
passion for Muong ethnic culture, Bong decided to build tourism product in Ngoi
hamlet, Ngoi Hoa commune (Tan Lac district).
The four-star Hoa Binh hotel designed in four
styles-Muong Bi, Muong Vang, Muong Thang and Muong Dong was put into operation,
becoming an opulent accommodation for both domestic and foreign visitors.
He also runs two three-star cruisers to serve tourists on Hoa Binh reservoir.
In addition, he has paid due attention to organising events to popularise Hoa
Binh culture and people to international friends. Hoa Binh Tourist JSC is
focusing all resources to invest in some projects in the core area of the
National Hoa Binh Reservoir Tourism Site. Those include Ngoi village tourism
site, and a five-star hotel complex on Sung island, Tien Phong commune (Da Bac
district) with total investment of millions of
Vietnam dong.
Seven stilt houses meeting international standards in Ngoi village are ready to
welcome tourists and create stable jobs for tens of local households. The
company recently inaugurated
Vietnam’s
largest floating water park with 34 clusters of games and water sports like
motor, inflatable boat, fishing canoe, floating swimming pools and other local traditional
sports.
The company has joined hands with leading experts in cultural tourism to
conduct surveys at tourism sites and potential areas then devise investment
strategies.
As a result, Ngoi village has been an attractive destination for foreign and
domestic tourists to experience local culture as well as tourism products.
Despite investment pressure in the past four years, Bong was consistent to
awake Hoa Binh reservoir by building typical tourism products, aiming to
improve livelihoods for those contributing to the construction of the Hoa Binih
hydropower plant./.
Gia Trang Heian Homestay, a unique cultural oasis in the heart of Hoa Binh city, has become a compelling attraction for tourists seeking ethnic cultural experiences within an urban setting. Bui Thi Hien, a local in Kim Boi district with aspiration for ethnic culture and community-based tourism development, created the homestay that seamlessly blends traditional and contemporary features.
To make tourism a key economic sector, Da Bac district has focused on investing in infrastructure, diversifying tourism products, and enhancing promotion efforts to create breakthroughs in developing the smokeless industry.
As the new year begins and festive spirit fills the air, visitors flock to Hoa Binh lake, often dubbed the "Ha Long Bay on land," to enjoy its breathtaking beauty and serene atmosphere. In spring, the lake comes alive with lush greenery and delicate blossoms, while boats carrying eager tourists glide across its tranquil waters.
With effective business operations, significant increases in the number of visitors at weekends and on public holidays, and being listed among the 71 most beautiful places to visit worldwide by the prestigious US travel magazine Condé Nast Traveller, Hoa Binh’s tourism is "spreading its wings" on its journey towards the targets of welcoming 4.9 million visitors, including 1 million foreigners, and achieving total tourism revenue of 5.4 trillion VND (211.89 million USD) in 2025.
On February 21, the Provincial People's Committee held a conference to implement the tourism plan in 2025 and meet with tourism businesses operating in the province. The event was chaired by Mr. Nguyen Van Toan, the Standing Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee and the Head of the Provincial Tourism Steering Committee.
Tien Pagoda is located in the valley of Lao Noi and Lao Ngoai villages, Phu Nghia commune, Lac Thuy district; it is surrounded by two mountain ranges stretching like two giant dragons reaching for the blue sky. Every year, when spring comes, thousands of Buddhists and tourists from all over the country make a pilgrimage to Tien Pagoda. The relic complex of Tien Pagoda is ranked as a national relic by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism with 21 relic sites of many types: historical and cultural relics, scenic relics, and archaeological relics.
