place in Toronto, Canada on September 17; in Washington DC on September 19; and

According to Dinh Ngoc Duc of the VNAT marketing department, the
programme, part of a master plan to promote Vietnamese tourism in 2018, will
help boost the number of tourists from this high-potential market.
He said that the events will also be an opportunity for Vietnamese tourist
enterprises and those from Canada and the US to meet directly, thus enhancing
their cooperation in the field.
Along with face-to-face meetings between hospitality companies and
agencies, the agenda will also include a programme presenting famous tourist
destinations in Vietnam and new tourist products and services. New State
policies in tourism development will also be introduced to audiences.
All events will conclude with a feast of Vietnamese cuisine.
Last year, among 12.9 million international tourists visiting Vietnam were
more than 138,000 visitors from Canada and 614,000 from the US. The figure from
the US includes a significant number of overseas Vietnamese.

Muong Bi - Tan Lac is renowned as one of the four famous Muong regions in Hoa Binh province. Blessed by nature with a favourable climate and stunning landscapes, Tan Lac holds great advantages for tourism development. The local tourism industry has made remarkable strides in recent times thanks to the attention and support from the local authorities and sectors.
With its strategic location, well-developed transport network, and diverse soil and climatic conditions, Hoa Binh is emerging as a must-visit destination in Vietnam's northwestern tourism corridor. The province boasts numerous attractions, including the Kim Boi hot springs (Kim Boi district), the Dau Rong cave complex (Cao Phong), the Mai Chau valley (Mai Chau), and the iconic Hoa Binh hydropower plant.
The northern mountainous province of Hoa Binh has been listed among the 71 most beautiful places to visit worldwide by the prestigious US travel magazine Condé Nast Traveller.
Hoa Binh province’s rich natural and cultural resources position it as a prime location for developing community-based tourism (CBT). In recent years, support from central and provincial policies, as well as assistance from non-governmental organisations, have encouraged local ethnic minority and mountainous communities to actively engage in the sector.
