The restored relics become an attractive destination for tourists,” he added.
In an effort to exploit the historical and cultural values of the relics for tourism development, the district People's Committee has issued a tourism development project to 2025 with a vision to 2030 and a plan to preserve cultural heritage sites in the locality covering the period from 2021 to 2030.
This is a timely project to link the development of tourism products with the exploitation of cultural resources, and to develop tourism in a sustainable manner that benefits the region for years to come./.
