The provincial People's Committee has just issued Decision No. 1419/QD-UBND on July 30th, 2024, regarding the recognition of Mo Hamlet Community Tourism Site.
Mo Hamlet community tourism focuses on preserving and
promoting the cultural values to attract tourists.
Located in Binh Thanh Commune (Cao Phong), Mo Hamlet
community tourism develops based on the pristine natural landscape and the
unique culture of the ethnic minorities through the traditional stilt houses
and the daily life of Muong people. The hamlet has 36 households participating
in the community tourism. The hamlet has established a community tourism
cooperative that focuses on preserving the cultural identity, reviving the
traditional crafts, protecting the ecological environment, and developing the
distinctive tourism products to effectively utilize tourism resources and
attract domestic and international visitors.
Especially with the attention and support of the
province, Mo Hamlet community tourism has met the conditions to be recognized:
it has tourism resources; the necessary infrastructure and services to ensure
serving tourists; social security and order; and environmental protection...
This contributes to promoting the safe and sustainable exploitation and
investment development of the Community Tourism Site.
According to the Decision, the management, exploitation,
and development of the Community Tourism Site are assigned to Binh Thanh
Commune’s People's Committee and Mo Hamlet Community Tourism Cooperative.
In recent years, based on the community tourism models of the Dao people in Cao Son commune and the Muong people in Hien Luong and Tien Phong communes, the authority of Da Bac district has built a model of this kind in the Tay ethnic community in Thu Lu hamlet, Giap Dat commune.
The People's Committee of Hoa Binh province on August 7 held a meeting to review the implementation of the project "Building upland communes in Tan Lac district into provincial-level tourist areas by 2030, with a vision to 2050" in the first months of 2024, and deploy tasks for the coming time. Nguyen Van Toan, Standing Vice Chairman of the provincial People's Committee, chaired the event.
Blessed by nature with beautiful landscapes with hundreds of caves, waterfalls, grass hills and a cultural space imbued with ethnic identity, some destinations in Cao Phong district are likened to "fairyland" or "tourist paradise". Clearly identifying its potential and advantages, over the recent years, the district has continuously invested in embellishing, preserving and increasing the value of its landscapes and relic sites to develop tourism.
After three years of implementing Resolution No. 05-NQ/HU, dated June 7, 2021, issued by the Lac Thuy Party Committee’s standing board on local tourism development for 2021-2025, the district has focused on forming distinctive cultural products linked to tourism to attract visitors. Its efforts have led to increasing tourist arrivals and tourism revenue, contributing to economic restructuring, job creation, state budget revenue collection, and higher living standards.
According to the Department of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, tourism business activities in the province have shown strong signs of recovery, and the province has achieved good growth in the first six months of this year. The total number of tourists visiting Hoa Binh is estimated at 2.6 million, increasing nearly 10% compared to that of the same period, achieving 61.9% of the annual plan.
Since the beginning of summer, the scenic Trang (Moon) waterfall has become a popular destination for tourists both within and outside the province. The development of food and sightseeing services has brought income to local households.
