Accordingly, agencies are requested to direct organisations and individuals involving in tourism services to publicise prices and sell products in line with the listed price. Strict punishment will be imposed on those who make profit from price gouging or misleading advertising, affecting the province’s image, and those who facilitate or cover up such violations.
The plan also aims to build a favourable business environment, encourage innovation and creative startups, develop corporate brands and assist small and medium-sized enterprises in applying science and technology, digital transformation and accessing capital sources. Unique indigenous cultural values and natural landscapes will be preserved and promoted for sustainable tourism development. Preferential policies will be issued, along with support to individuals, organisations and communities engaging in community-based and agricultural tourism products and services. The province will zone areas for night-time economy in association with night-time tourism, and develop diverse services and products at popular destinations. Plans and tasks for environmental protection are also part of the plan.
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.
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.
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.
