The tourism sector of the northern province of Vinh Phuc has thrived in recent years thanks to the locality’s infrastructure development policies.
This year, Vinh Phuc estimates to welcome 5.2 million tourists, including 40,200 foreigners, higher than the figures of 3.8 million holiday-makers and 28,000 foreigners of 2016.
The province set targets of serving 6 million visitors, including 43,500 foreigners, and earning 1.91 trillion VND (82 million USD) in 2019.
To that end, local leaders have directed authorised agencies to soon complete infrastructure, and increase the quality of tourism services to better serve tourists, especially during the New Year and lunar New Year (Tet) holidays.
Business units of tourism services were required to publicise their prices, intensify food safety and hygiene, and ensure security and order.
Bordering Hanoi capital city, Vinh Phuc has become an ideal destination for short holidays. Its tourist attractions include Tay Thien site, Tam Dao National Park, Flamingo Dai Lai, and FLC Vinh Phuc resorts.
