Quang Ninh aims to become international tourism hub

Quang Ninh aims to become an international tourism hub and a world leading destination by 2050. This is among important targets of the province's tourism development scheme to 2030 with a vision to 2050.

As planned, the province will establish the brand of Ha Long Bay - Bai Tu Long Bay as a landscape paradise and harmonizing the development of economic-social-environmental ecosystems, along with raising the quality of life of local residents to meet international standards.

Quang Ninh has also dedicated resources to maximise its potential for developing tourism, particularly cultural and community-based tourism as cultural tourism is an effective means to promote the culture and image of attractive tourism destinations in Quanh Ninh, especially the World Natural Heritage Site Ha Long Bay, to international friends.

Under the project, from now until 2030, Quang Ninh will continue to strengthen its role as a national tourism locomotive with tourism turned into a spearhead economic sector in connection with sustainable development of marine economy towards green growth. The province will strive to attract tourists all year round and become a destination not to be missed in Vietnam.

This year, Quang Ninh expects to welcome 17 million visitors, including three million foreigners. To this end, it is rolling out such solutions as attracting tourists from Northeast Asia and China, Europe, the US, and developing new markets such as India, Middle East, Russia and Australia through promotion activities.
