The Cửu Long (Mekong) Delta city of Cần Thơ strives to develop unique tourism products with distinct local identities and attract investments for breakthrough tourism projects to boost international arrivals to the city, officials said.
HCM City tourism saw growth in arrivals in the first ten months of the year, welcoming nearly 6.6 million foreign visitors, representing a year-on-year increase of 18 per cent, according to its Department of Tourism.
HCM City has a great opportunity to develop tourism with rich and diverse resources following its merger with Bà Rịa-Vũng Tàu and Bình Dương provinces, the city tourism authority said.
The International Travel Expo HCM City (ITE HCMC), the most prestigious and largest international tourism fair in Việt Nam and the lower Mekong region, will take place on September 4-6 at the Sài Gòn Exhibition and Convention Centre (SECC) in District 7.
