“Leverage” for summer travel

During the recent holiday, key tourist destinations in the province such as Sa Pa, Bac Ha, Y Ty (Bat Xat), Nghia Do (Bao Yen) continued to be the priority choices of tourists thanks to their cool climate, beautiful natural landscapes and rich cultural activities.

Tourism was bustling during the recent holiday season.

This year, Bac Ha district organized the qualifying round of the traditional horse racing festival about a month earlier than usual, right at the time of the holiday. Nearly 100 horse riders participated in dramatic races, attracting many tourists to the stadium to watch, a positive signal for the locality to continue to offer many unique products during this year's summer tourist season.

Mr. Tran Hoang Tuan, Vice Chairman of Bac Ha District People's Committee said: The district determined to organize the qualifying round early in conjunction with the holiday so that people and tourists can have more interesting experiences.

Seizing this opportunity, Bac Ha is actively developing tourism products that meet the needs of tourists. During the peak summer tourism season, Bac Ha district will continue to organize the semi-finals and finals of the traditional horse racing festival, right in the Tam Hoa plum harvest season, promising to attract thousands of tourists to the "white plateau". Along with that, the locality will step up propaganda, introduce and promote tourism products and new tourist destinations to tourists.

Holiday tourism attracts many tourists, which is the driving force for the tourism industry to offer more attractive products.

During the 5-day holiday, tourism activities in the province were carefully organized, ensuring the safety of the people and tourists. Tourism service businesses were proactive and well-prepared, ensuring service quality according to standards, and there was no overload at tourist areas and spots. Room rates and services were kept stable. In particular, the high number of visitors is a clear demonstration of the attraction of Lao Cai tourism, contributing to building and maintaining the image of a friendly and safe destination of Lao Cai.

Mr. Ha Quoc Trung, Head of Tourism Management and Development Department, Department of Culture - Sports and Tourism said: The positive signals during the holiday season are a "leverage" for the tourism industry to continue to strive to launch many attractive products this summer, aiming to welcome 10 million visitors in 2025.

From the success of tourism during the recent holiday, in the coming time, Lao Cai will continue to focus on developing products associated with natural experiences, indigenous culture and high-quality resorts. At the same time, all levels and functional sectors will promote and apply digital transformation in tourism management and promotion, improve service quality and train local human resources.

Tourism is ready for the peak tourist season of the year.

In June, Lao Cai will organize the first International Tourism Fair with 130 standard booths. The fair will have the participation of tourism businesses and international partners. In particular, this event will introduce a series of product packages, tours, and vouchers with great incentives for tourists. This will be a great opportunity to promote and introduce Lao Cai's tourism potential to tourists and domestic and foreign partners.

With results exceeding expectations from the recent holiday season, Lao Cai tourism has a great opportunity to break through and become the leading attractive destination in the Northwest region in the summer tourist season of 2025.
