In addition, Hanoi was also honored in the category of Top 25 leading cultural destinations in the world at the 2nd position.
Currently, Hanoi is focusing on welcoming tourists on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2. The city has proactively developed and deployed many new tours and routes, for example, some suburban routes connecting the city center with Thanh Tri-Thuong Tin-Phu Xuyen districts.
Highlights include Phuc Am votive paper village (Thuong Tin district), Ngau village (Thanh Tri district) where chrysanthemum wine is made...
Some inner-city tours are also exploited such as: Tour to experience the night of Tran Vu Bell at Quan Thanh Temple, train tour connecting the inner city with the suburbs...
The city also proactively improves the quality of destinations and service quality at accommodation establishments.
The end of 2025 is also the “golden season” for tourism in the capital. Therefore, Hanoi is expected to exceed its plan to welcome 31 million tourists in 2025.
