The 2024 Culture-Tourism Week and the Binh Lieu Yellow Season Festival are the message of a beautiful district with historical traditions and cultural identities as well as rustic and honesty locals that ethnic minority people in Binh Lieu District want to promote to visitors.

As a borderline mountainous district in the northeast of Quang Ninh, just 120km away from Ha Long City, Binh Lieu shares 43km borders with China, Binh Lieu is greatly endowed by nature with moderate climate and cool weather and fresh air all year round.

Binh Lieu possesses high mountainous terrain with stunning waterfalls such as Khe Van, Khe Tien and Song Mooc. The terraced fields here are called "golden carpets" during the ripe rice season. The immense “heaven” of white reed grass and vast acacia and Ceylon cinnamon forests Binh Lieu have currently regarded as the most mesmerizing views in this district.

With 96% of the population being ethnic minorities, Binh Lieu district is now developing models of preserving cultural values ​​of ethnic groups such as Tay culture village in Dong Thanh (Hoanh Mo commune), cultural villages of the Dao people in Na Nhai (Vo Ngai commune), Song Mooc (Dong Van commune). Also, a range of unique accommodation establishments and community tourist attractions have been constructed.

In addition, Binh Lieu district develops tourism products based on seven categories to bring interesting experiences to visitors. Therefore, travellers have good chances to experience various community activities of ethnic people.
