Paragliders displayed their skills over the mountains and rice fields of An Giang province at a recent performance held to discover the majestic beauty of the Mekong Delta province.
Known for its beautiful scenery and beaches, the south-central coastal province of Binh Thuan is a popular destination for water sport lovers and also paragliding.
The third Open Putaleng Paragliding Tournament took off in Tam Duong district, the northern mountainous province of Lai Chau, on April 14. The event, part of the Lai Chau Culture - Tourism Week, attracted the participation of 100 domestic and foreign fliers.
U Bo Peak in Van Nghia commune, Lac Son district, in Hoa Binh province is a destination to relax and enjoy adventure sports, including paragliding. When the weather is fine, the colourful gliders look like butterflies in the sky.
As well as relaxing on the beach, visitors to the central coastal city of Da Nang this summer had the chance to experience a kaleidoscope of exciting activities during the city’s summer festival.
Da Nang’s tourism sector has been thriving thanks to a host of festivals and events held since the beginning of the summer. In July alone, accommodation and catering services added nearly 93 million USD to the city’s tourism revenue, up 6.3% against June and 30.7% year-on-year.
Da Nang city is famous for its majestic and beautiful natural landscapes, and one way of taking in a panoramic view of the city is paragliding, which is an experience that simply shouldn’t be missed.
