The benefits for the people of Huong Tra, Hoa Huong ward in particular, and the city in general are huge; many households have taken advantage of the festival to organize businesses and provide services to generate income. This is a step forward in the development of city tourism in the direction of state investment and stimulation to bring benefits to the people and the people participate in festival activities, thereby helping to develop sustainable tourism.
“This festival will have a great impact on the implementation of the city's tourism development project until 2025, with a vision to 2030. The number of tourists, especially foreign tourists, from provinces and cities coming to the festival is quite large. In the coming time, the city will continue to invest in infrastructure for Huong Tra eco-village and other tourist destinations in the city.
At the same time, promote and call on travel agencies and tourism businesses to invest in order to fully exploit the tourism potential and advantages of Tam Ky, striving to make Tam Ky a key tourist destination in the south of the province" - Mr. Lai said.
