Lao Cai aims to welcome 5 million tourists in 2019

The northern province of Lao Cai has its sights set on receiving 5 million visitors this year, turning the region into one of Viet Nam’s key tourist destinations with recognized international stature.

Accordingly, the province has deployed a number of policies aimed at accelerating tourism development and developing the town of Sa Pa into a tourism and service centre. Additionally, the locality has also promoted tourism activities throughout districts such as Bat Xat, Bac Ha, Bao Yen, and Van Ban in order to diversify tourism spaces.

To give a boost to the tourism sector, a number of connectivity programs have been implemented such as the co-operation program aimed at developing the econmic corridor between the five localities of Kunming-Lao Cai-Ha Noi-Hai Phong-Quang Ninh.

This has been followed by a co-operation program to develop spiritual tourism along the Red River-Lao Cai-Yen Bai-Phu Tho, and co-operation programs between Lao Cai and Ha Noi, Lao Cai and HCM City, and with the Nouvelle –Aquitane region of France.
