The tourist, who comes from China’s Jiangxi province, was travelling to Mong Cai with eight others.
Statistics show that the number of holidaymakers to Mong Cai through the border gate has reached nearly 3 million just in 2018 alone.
The ceremony has not only marked the increase in the number of visitors via the border gate, but also contributed to promoting brand names and spurring the socio-economic development of the two cities.
Dongxing is the third largest land border gate in China. Since 2013, China has allowed foreigners to conduct visa procedures at the gate.

In 2017, there were 93 cars carrying 256 Chinese tourists to Mong Cai city and 38 cars with 110 tourists from Vietnam to Dongxing City in China.
