Hoa
Binh
Lake into a national tourist zone that
sees a perfect combination of nature, sky and water, and pristine wildlife.
Some says the lake looks like a Ha Long Bay on the mountain with huge potential
to develop cultural and historical tours, eco-tours and spiritual tours.
State agencies and travel agencies have organized many
Famtrip to the lake in the hope that it would open new opportunities for
tourism development in the area.
The Hoa Binh Tourist JSC has invested in tourism
products based on the nature and culture of Muong ethnic minority people along
