The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially affected
the socio-economic situation of Vietnam over the last two years. On October 18,
the People’s Committee of Hoa Binh announced that the province is at Pandemic
Level No. 1, which means low risk. This is a favourable condition for the
province to recover socio-economic activities, especially tourism.
Themed "Visit Hoa Binh - safe, friendly and
attractive destination”, the conference aimed to advertise the province as a
destination with quality tourism products able to meet travel demand of
Vietnamese people and foreigners living in the country, helping to gradually
reopen to international visitors.
At the event, travel stimulus packages were
announced by local businesses, including the Dinh Nhuan Trading JSC, Da Bac
Community-based Tourism JSC, Hoa Binh Tourism JSC, Mai Chau Hideway Resort,
Heritage Park of Vietnamese Scientists, Serena Resort Kim Boi, and V-Resort Kim
Boi.
Addressing the conference, Standing Vice Chairman
of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Toan and Deputy General
Director of the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism Pham Van Thuy asked
local authorities to work with relevant ministries, sectors, and localities to
ensure pandemic safety and increase popularising Hoa Binh’s tourism among
domestic travellers, especially those in Hanoi.
They requested travel companies to realise their
commitment to reducing prices but keeping quality, boost the advertisement of
promotional programmes, improve people and businesses’ awareness of the
pandemic prevention and control, ensure safety for tourists and workers, pay
attention to food safety, and carry out environmental protection measures.

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.
