In recent years, Quang Ninh tourism has seen a fairly high growth. Therefore, besides improving the quality of existing tourism products, Quang Ninh province has planned to expand tourist space and form new tourism products with its own class and brand.
Sea and island tourism is considered as the most strengh of Quang Ninh Province. That’s the reason why this type of tourism has attracted the special interests from large investors, such as: Sun Group, Vingroup, FLC etc. with unique tourism products that make great changes for Quang Ninh tourism.
Besides the tourist center area of Ha Long, other coastal areas of Quang Ninh have proved strong development, affirming their important positions thanks to high-class tourism products. At the beginning of this summer tourism season, a model of community-based ecotourism on Quan Lan Island (Van Don District) came into operation, including 2 exploration routes under the theme: The heroic history and culture of Quan Lan Island; Being a fisherman in a day. Special attention has been given to investing in construction and exploiting experential tourism products by many localities and enteprises, thus creating impressive products which are highly appreciated by visitors.
In the coming time, some tourism products will be available, such as luxury yacht, night show on Ha Long Bay, experiential tourism “A journey for homeland’s sea and islands” in Co To District etc.
Along with sea and island tourism products, Quang Ninh has also attached importance to developing the high-quality cultural and spiritual tourism products and community based eco-tourism. Recently, special national relic sites including Tran Dynasty’s Heritage in Dong Trieu Town, Yen Tu, Cua Ong have been restored and embellished while transport infrastructure has been upgraded. Remarkably, Tung Lam Development JSC completed the investment in upgrading 2 cable car systems in Yen Tu in early 2018 and building Truc Lam Yen Tu Culture Center at the foot of the mountain with a total invesment of 2 tril. VND. The project has a very special architecture adapted from the Tran dynasty architecture, leaving a deep impression on pilgrims visiting Yen Tu.
Some other localities, such as Uong Bi, Mong Cai, Binh Lieu, Hoanh Bo, Co To, Van Don etc. have attracted enterprises to develop tourism products with the aim of creating the chain of tourism products in the province.
Obviously, the priority to developing high-quality tourism products is the key point in line with the orientation of turning tourism into an economic spearhead of many localities, thereby greatly contributing to achieving the target of developing Quang Ninh into a high-quality tourism center of the region by 2020.
