The Heritage Park of Vietnamese Scientists (Meddom Park) in Bac Phong commune, Cao Phong district, is one of the many attractive destinations for visitors of all ages.
In mid-July, Cao Phong One Member Co., Ltd. launched a new tourism product: Ha Den vineyard tourist site in Cao Phong town. Coming there, tourists are free to visit and take photos, and can buy grapes as gift. Visitors are also guided by the company's technical staff on how to plant and care for the vines if they want to experience it.
To make tourism and services a key economic sector of the district by 2025, with an average growth reaching at least 15%, bringing the proportion of the industry to 30% by 2025 and 40% by 2030, the district has been focusing on implementing key tasks and solutions such as continuing to promote dissemination to raise public awareness of tourism development, mobilising resources to invest in building infrastructure, especially transport, wharf and telecommunications infrastructure.
Attention will be paid to speeding up socialisation of investment in construction of tourism infrastructure; building eco-resorts combined with high-quality entertainment services, historical and cultural relic sites, community-based and spiritual tourism sites; developing diverse and attractive tours to attract more visitors; building typical local tourism products; and improving the quality of spiritual tourism in the Hoa Binh Lake tourist area like Thuong Bong Lai and Dong Son temples in Cao Phong town, Khanh pagoda in Thach Yen commune, and Quen Ang pagoda, and Mo Muong cultural space in Hop Phong commune.
To date, the district has established 88 Muong ethnic cultural clubs in communes and residential areas and preserved over 1,600 gongs and nearly 100 traditional stilt houses in the community. Tourism promotion and development has received due attention.
