The famtrip delegation explores tourist site in Ke hamlet, Hien Luong commune (Da Bac district).

 The delegation learned about the situation in tourist destinations, including community-based tourist hamlets, caves, springs and tourist spots in the districts of Da Bac, Mai Chau, Tan Lac and Cao Phong, and Hoa Binh city. Of those destinations, some have been under effective operation such as Ban Tru hamlet of Thai Thinh commune (Hoa Binh city); Ke hamlet of Hien Luong commune and Da Bia hamlet of Tien Phong commune (Da Bac district); Ngoi hamlet of Ngoi Hoa commune (Tan Lac district); Suoi Lon hamlet of Tan Mai commune (Mai Chau district); and waterfalls and islands in Hoa Binh Lake like the lake on the mountain, twin waterfalls in Trach spring, coconut and windmill islands. 

Tour operators lauded the huge tourism potential of Hoa Binh Lake, with clear water, natural and beautiful mountains which make picturesque landscapes, along with local people’s friendliness. Some destinations boast professional service providers, delicious and clean food.

Although Hoa Binh Lake is wide, vehicles travelling on the lake are limited in capacity and quality while scattered tourism spots have yet to form routes and create long journeys to lure visitors.

At present, food around the lake mainly includes fish, hill chicken, local pigs and wide bamboo shoots and vegetables, among others. They are all clean and tasty products, however, cooking process and food arrangement remain unattractive. Additionally, there has been no specific cuisine planning for each region, so products are still overlapped. Some other products like brocade, rattan and bamboo products and handicrafts have yet to be put up for sale systematically.

At the end of the trip, tour operators affirmed that as Hoa Binh Lake boasts huge tourism potential, they will introduce and devise new travel programmes that bring more guests to explore the culture of local ethnic people here as well as contemplate the pristine and spectacular beauty of the lake./.
