Quang Ninh (VNA) – To fulfil its target of welcoming 15 million tourists and earning 32.4 trillion VND (1.36 billion USD) this year, the northern coastal province of Quang Ninh, home to Ha Long Bay World Natural Heritage, plans to introduce 24 new tourism products in April.

Accordingly, these products will be exploited in Ha Long and Mong Cai cities, and Van Don, Co To and Hai Ha districts.

The provincial Department of Tourism has proposed the allowance of five tour routes on Bai Tu Long Bay, of which two from Ao Tien International Port in Van Don district will be put into operation soon.

To better exploit the new products, Nguyen Thi Hanh, Vice Chairwoman of the provincial People’s Committee, asked localities to make plans to ensure facilities, human resources and service quality are ready for peak seasons.

The province has also prepared scenarios and taken measures to serve foreign visitors, especially those from China, as the COVID-19 pandemic is under relative control around the world.

Quang Ninh welcomed about 1.7 million visitors and earned some 3 trillion VND from tourism services in February.

In the first two months of this year, the figures stood at 3.35 million tourists, doubling that in the same period last year, and more than 6.5 trillion VND in total tourism revenue./.
