The northern province of Bac Giang has set the goal of attracting more than 1 million tourists by 2020, including over 11,700 foreigners, and earning over 830 billion VND (37.2 million USD).
The second Luc Ngan Fruit Festival 2017, held in the northern mountain province of Bac Giang on November 25, has helped promote high-quality fruit products and create opportunities for business enterprises to boost close links with each other, as well as with consumers in domestic markets, said officials.
Thieu lychee, a unique fruit of the northern province of Bac Giang, is expected to record 5.5 trillion VND (240.28 million USD) in value this year if it can retain its current price until the end of the fruit season.
Over the past years, besides its popular Đoan Hùng pomelo, the eponymous district in the midland province of Phu Tho has grown several citrus seedlings with high economic value.
