Included in the development masterplan of the Hoa Binh lake national tourist area, the lakebed communes in Da Bac highland district are rich in tourism development potential, particularly resort and community tourism.

5-star Robinson resort project in Tien Phong commune,
invested by Hoa Binh Tourism joint Stock Company, is being implemented as a
highlight in the system of ecological resort destinations in Da Bac lake.
In the past, the main source of livelihood of Tien Phong commune
locals was fishing and aquaculture. This job was not always favourable because
it depended on weather factors and environment. Difficult trade and travel conditions
directly affected consumption, market prices, and product output.
Since the implementation of tourism activities, people's
awareness, production and business thinking have seen many innovations. Instead
of only relying on cage fish farming, some households have opened homestay
businesses to serve tourists.
Currently, in addition to Da Bia, in the lake communes of the
district, there are many community based tourism points attracting tourists,
including Mo Hem village (now Doan Ket village) - Tien Phong commune, Sung
village - Cao Son commune, and Ke village - Hien Luong commune.
In particular, Sung village is the only Dao Tien one in the
province doing tourism. In addition to the majestic natural landscape, the
village also preserves the unique culture of customs, housing architecture,
writing, traditional crafts, costumes, and cuisine. This is one of the special
destinations attracting international visitors to visit and explore.
Not only strong in community based tourism, some investors have implemented
high-quality ecological and resort projects. The destinations have been put
into operation, including Mo Retreat, Xoan Village in Mo hamlet, Hien Luong
commune; Vayang Retreat in Van Nua commune; Maida Lodge in Tien Phong commune.
Particularly, the 5-star Robinson natural park project in Tien Phong commune
has carried out the construction of a number of important items.
Ban Kim Quy, Vice Chairman of Da Bac District People's
Committee, said nature and culture are valuable resources that the district is
exploiting and promoting to form a green, safe and attractive tourism
destination, contributing to creating jobs and sustainable livelihoods for
ethnic minorities living in lake communes.
In order to promote the development of local tourism
economy with lakebed tourism as a focus, the district has implemented many
solutions, including investing in and upgrading infrastructure such as roads
and electricity communications systems.
A Phong Linh (Yellow Tabebuia) flower garden in Thang village, Thach Yen commune, Cao Phong district is currently in full bloom, drawing a large number of visitors.
Community-based tourism has been thriving in Pa Co commune, Mai Chau district thanks to advantages in natural landscape and cultural identity.
Doan Ket commune of Yen Thuy district has recently held a ceremony to receive a certificate recognising Ta communal house as a provincial-level historical and cultural relic site.
In Lac Thuy district, the fertile alluvial land along the Boi River is now home to lush green mulberry gardens, marking the emergence of a new agricultural industry - mulberry cultivation and silkworm farming.
Officially opening in February, Ngoi Hoa Ecotourism Site (PriorBay Resort) in Suoi Hoa commune, Tan Lac district, has quickly become a sought-after destination. It offers visitors a chance to indulge in distinctive and enticing experiences.
Gia Trang Heian Homestay, a unique cultural oasis in the heart of Hoa Binh city, has become a compelling attraction for tourists seeking ethnic cultural experiences within an urban setting. Bui Thi Hien, a local in Kim Boi district with aspiration for ethnic culture and community-based tourism development, created the homestay that seamlessly blends traditional and contemporary features.
