A family in Da Bia hamlet, Tien Phong commune (Da Bac
district) offers tourism services for tourists.
Regarding households
living along the Hoa Binh Lake with potential for community-based tourism
development, the provincial Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism has
opened several classes, including one in Ngoi hamlet (Ngoi Hoa commune) and
another on the Coconut island (Thung Nai commune). In addition, the department
has run classes on developing tourism products and promoting destinations for
locals, most recently in Tien hamlet, Thung Nai commune. It has also organised
tours and trips to study tourism models in Vinh Phuc province, Moc Chau
district (Son La province), and Thai Nguyen province.
In the past, lakeside
hamlets mostly involved in agriculture, forestry and fishing. Now, many of
them, such as Ngoi hamlet (Ngoi Hoa commune), Ke hamlet (Hien Luong commune),
and Da Bia hamlet (Tien Phong commune) have moved to developing homestay
tourism services. Bui Thi Nhem, whose family offers homestay services in Da Bia
hamlet, Tien Phong commune, said that local households have been supported to
acquire basic tourism knowledge and skills, including customer services, service
quality management, communication and cooking skills. The hamlet has four
homestays, with the number of domestic and international visitors increasing significantly.
Community-based tourism activities are bringing about practical outcomes, both
improving living conditions and preserving cultural values./.
