Ha Long holds post-COVID-19 tourism promotion activities
VOV.VN - Hundreds of residents and tourists immersed themselves in the music and light of a programme running with the theme of "Ha Long Bay - A rendezvous of the world's natural wonders" on October 31 at the Tuan Chau international tourism complex.
Approximately 200 artists took part in the programme, performing numerous songs in praise of Ha Long City’s beautiful landscape and local friendly people.
More than 100 local women also participated in a fashion show of Ao Dai – a traditional long dress of Vietnam - during the 60-minute programme.
2021 marks 10 years of Ha Long Bay becoming one of the world's new seven wonders of nature as voted for by New Open World.
The programme was part of Quang Ninh’s tourism stimulus scheme aimed at welcoming back guests from other localities nationwide after the province has decided to reopen its major tourist destinations.
Currently, Tuan Chau Group is planning to organise a winter carnival, a motor race, and a boat race in the future in an effort to popularize Ha Long as a friendly and safe destination. It has set a target of receiving two million visitors in the fourth quarter of the year and gradually recovering the tourism industry.
Quang Ninh previously held 50 events to stimulate tourism and resume services across the entire locality.
The province is poised to cooperate alongside Hai Phong, Hanoi, Da Nang, and other localities where the COVID-19 pandemic has basically been controlled to run tourism programmes in the remaining months of the year.
