(HBO) - Hoa Binh’s tourism sector has recorded an impressive recovery from the second quarter of 2022.

Tourists staying at Mai Chau Hideaway Resort are kayaking on Hoa Binh Lake.
Hoa Binh boasts beautiful natural landscapes and
unique culture. The northern province has fully tapped its potential and
advantages and diversified products and services, contributing to further
promoting local tourism development.
Four-star Serena Resort – the "resort paradise”
in the Northwest region, becomes a familiar place for tourists who love
entertainment-resort tourism every weekend.
Thanks to the poetic landscape integrated with diverse
services and professional service style, the resort is very popular with
tourists. The average occupancy rate is over 70%, and is always full during
long holidays.
Other tourist resorts such as Avana Retreat, Ba Khan
Villa Resort, Mai Chau Hideaway in Mai Chau district; and An Lac Ecofarm Hot
and Spring in Kim Boi district; Ivory Villas & Resort, Sun Set, Phoenix
Golf Phoenix in Luong Son district; Hasu Villas in Hoa Binh city, are also
popular with visitors.
Community-based tourism sites in Hoa Binh are also
attractive to tourists.
According to Vice Chairman of the Da Bac district
People’s Committee Ban Kim Quy, the local authority has worked hard to boost
post-COVID-19 tourism recovery.
Da Bac welcomed over 20,000 tourists, including
foreigners, after travel restrictions were lifted, Quy said.
A series of culture and sport activities, and tourism
promotion programmes and fairs have been organised in Hoa Binh recently to lure
tourists.
Vice Director of the provincial Department of Culture,
Sports and Tourism Bui Xuan Truong said along with the province's efforts to
organise tourism stimulus events, diversifying tourism products has helped speed
up tourism recovery and lure more holiday-makers to Hoa Binh.
In the first half of 2022, Hoa Binh welcomed over 1.8
million visitors, equivalent to 71% of the yearly plan. The locality raked in
nearly 2 trillion VND (nearly 84.99 million USD) in the period, up 124.5%
year-on-year./.
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.
With its majestic natural landscapes, diverse ethnic cultures, and numerous unique festivals, Hoa Binh province is an attractive destination that entices travellers from far and wide to explore and experience during the Lunar New Year (Tet) holiday.
