Meanwhile, Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism Le Quang Tung said that branching out standout tourism products together with bettering service quality are crucial for the province’s tourism development.
As Bac Giang sets its sights on becoming famous for its spiritual-cultural-historic tourism attractions, Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Linh has committed to creating favourable conditions for investors to build hotels, restaurants, and shopping malls as well as developing potential tourism sites like Suoi Mo and Dong Cao.
