(HBO) - Promoting the potential and advantages of local tourism, Yen Thuy district has set a goal of developing spiritual and religious tourism, becoming a friendly, safe and attractive destination for tourists.
Xam village in Phu Lai commune is upgraded and restored as an attractive spiritual tourist spot of Yen Thuy district.
The district focuses on developing the domestic tourist market
from Hanoi, Red River Delta provinces, gradually expanding to the southern
provinces. It exploits international tourist markets such as mainland China,
Taiwan and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Attention will
be paid to promoting the potential of eco-tourism of primitive forests in Lac
Luong and Da Phuc communes; Water Cave - Thien Ton cave in Ngoc Luong commune
and Thien Long cave.
Bui Van Hong, Vice Chairman of the district People's Committee, said in order
to create momentum for tourism development, the district has restored a number
of historical and cultural relics such as Hang Pagoda - Chua Cave at a cost of
1.95 billion VND and Thuong Communal House in Yen Tri commune with a budget of
about 900 million VND from contributions from local people.
A number of traditional festivals are being preserved to create typical tourism
products. In addition, the district also promotes the values of national
cultural identity through the art performance teams at grassroots level.
The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly affected the district’s development of
tourism since 2020. The total number of visitors to the district last year was
5,961, reaching 12.2 percent of the year’s year while the revenue decreased
sharply to only 3.2 billion VND, accounting for 26.67 percent of the plan. The
prolonged pandemic has resulted in a standstill of tourism activities this
year.
To ensure the quality and create professionalism in organisation of tourism
activities, the district sets up an inspection team in the field of culture and
regularly examines the activities of the relics’ management boards, Hong said.
Students are dispatched to participate in training programmes, fostering
professional tourism activities organised by the Department of Culture, Sports
and Tourism and were granted certificates in accordance with the Ministry of
Culture, Sports and Tourism’s regulations, he added.
The Vice Chairman of the district People's Committee said to promote and
introduce Yen Thuy tourism, the district’s Centre for Culture, Sports and
Tourism has made short videos about scenic spots, tourist attractions, communal
house architecture and pagodas namely "Yen Thuy - potential and strengths in
tourism development” and "Yen Thuy - hidden beauty”.
Projects and programmes under the district's tourism development plan are
posted on the district's website, thereby attracting investors to the sector in
the locality.
As the COVID-19 pandemic is gradually controlled, Yen Thuy district strives to
revive tourism by focusing on attracting investment, strengthening the
management and product diversification as well as promoting dissemination on
tourism and environmental protection./.
