(HBO) – Da Bia village (now Duc Phong village) in Tien Phong commune, Da Bac district, used to be a small and isolated village, which visitors could only access by small boats. But things have become quite different since the village began to develop tourism and has gradually become an attractive destination.
In 2019, Da Bia community tourism area was honored to receive the ASEAN Award for community tourism. Thereby, the quality, the professionalism and the attractiveness of the local tourism service have been affirmed, and at the same time, it helps to promote and introduce the local images, the people and the culture to domestic and international friends.

Bui Van Luyen, Secretary of the Da Bac District Party Committee, said the district is determined to boost tourism, attract investment in order to turn the sector into an economic spearhead, helping to create more jobs and improve living standards of the locals.
