Tourism potential

Ba Vi District has great potential for tourism development in the suburb of Hanoi with  ecotourism, holidays, sports tourism (mountain climbing and trekking), medical tourism and spiritual tourism; thanks to the advantages of diversified terrain with mountains, rivers, forests for beautiful ecological zones.

Besides, it boasts rich history and culture with over 300 historical and cultural relics as well as the most unique architectural communal houses in Vietnam such as Tay Dang, Thuy Phieu, Thanh Lung…, and the cultural diversity of Kinh, Muong, and Yao ethnic groups.

However, Ba Vi tourism potential has not yet been tapped. According to Mr. Nguyen Van Tai, Director of VietSense Tourism Company, which has just conducted a survey trip to the area, n the poor infrastructure and traffic, the scarcity of services and the lack of tourism qualification of the locals are the major obstacles for the district’s tourism sector to thrive.

Currently, Hanoi has planned the Ba Vi – Suoi Hai Tourism Area with a vision to 2030. The People’s Committee of Ba Vi district is also building a plan for Ba Vi tourism development in the near future.

Mr. Duc Anh said in order to promote the potential of Ba Vi tourism, the locality will gradually build new tour packages towards the development of the community-based tourism and those associated with ethnic groups.

In addition, it will focus on green tourism development, invest and upgrade roads to tourist places, apply more information technology, provide free wifi at tourist spots, and cooperate with travel agencies to increase tours to the attractions.

“Ba Vi Tourism Festival is one of the opening activities for the program of promoting tourism in Ba Vi District in 2021. It will help increase the attractiveness of tours to Hanoi’s suburbs, contributing to promoting the capital’s tourism in the coming time,” said Mr. Duc Anh.
