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.
Thanks to the development of social networks, Thung waterfall is gradually becoming known as a new destination, attracting tourists from inside and outside the province thanks to its wild beauty. This is a positive sign opening up opportunities for tourism development in the mountainous commune of Quyet Chien, Tan Lac district.
Da Bac district has pinpointed culture as a key driver of tourism development, a direction clearly outlined in the Resolution of the 25th district Party Congress for the 2020-2025 tenure.
Go Lao waterfall in Go Mu hamlet, Son Thuy commune, Mai Chau district is a hidden gem of the northern mountainous province of Hoa Binh.
In the first 9 months of 2024, Hoa Binh province continues to implement the expanded tourism development cooperation program plan of 8 Northwest provinces with Ho Chi Minh City; deploying digital transformation content in tourism and developing a smart tourism province. Hoa Binh province received about 3.6 million views, an increase of 7.9% over the same period. In which, international visitors are about 380 visitors, domestic visitors are estimated at 3 million 220 visitors.
Spanning thousands of hectares and winding gracefully along mountain slopes, hillsides, and riverbanks, the terraced rice fields of Lac Son District present a stunning and captivating beauty. This region, renowned for its remarkable terraced landscapes, is also the centre of Hoa Binh Culture known for numerous archaeological sites.
The life of Mong people in Hang Kia and Pa Co communes of Mai Chau district has improved much thanks to tourism development.
