Ninh Binh (VNA) – The Ninh Binh Tourism Week 2024 will feature various special activities for visitors coming to the northern province between June 1 - 8.

Under the theme “The Yellow Colour of Tam Coc - Trang An”, the week will be held at the Tam Coc - Bich Dong tourist area in Hoa Lu district.

Outstanding events include a tour to explore Tam Coc paddy field and agricultural rituals on June 1 afternoon, an opening ceremony on June 1 evening with the participation of over 10,000 people, the launch of a walking street, folk art performances, displays of local handicrafts, as well as a photography tour themed "Tam Coc Yellow Season”.

A photo exhibition titled "Tam Coc - Trang An Yellow Season" will be held along with many other cultural programmes such as water puppet shows, cheo (traditional opera), xam (buskers’ singing), and a goat fighting contest.

According to the organising committee, the week is a typical annual tourism product of Ninh Binh. This year, it also marks 10 years since the Trang An landscape complex was recognised by UNESCO as a world cultural and natural heritage site.

The Tam Coc - Trang An Yellow Season is an event held annually since 2018 in early summer, as rice fields ripen along Ngo Dong River.

The Tam Coc paddy field, known as one of the five most beautiful in Vietnam, is entering its most charming time of the year, just in time for the Ninh Binh Tourism Week. The field is attractive in part because it shows the interconnectivity between nature and people./.
