Kon Tum is also proud of many important historical relics, famous landscapes such as the poetic Mang Den eco-tourism area, Chu Mom Ray National Park - ASEAN heritage garden, and Ngoc Linh Nature Reserve - home to the rare Ngoc Linh ginseng. All of these create an ideal foundation for economic, cultural and tourism development.”
The Vice Chairman of Kon Tum Provincial People's Committee hopes that this event will not only leave a strong impression on visitors and delegates but also be an opportunity to call on investors to join hands in developing the cultural and tourism potential of the province. Accordingly, activities such as the Cultural - Tourism Week and the Gong and Xoang Festival are the bridge to strengthen solidarity among ethnic groups, build an advanced culture with strong national identity, and at the same time promote sustainable socio-economic development.
One of the important highlights at the event was the announcement ceremony of the Prime Minister's Decision approving the Master Plan for the construction of Mang Den Tourist Area (Kon Plong District, Kon Tum Province) until 2045. The plan aims to turn Mang Den into one of the key national tourism development centers, with the orientation of preserving natural landscapes, sustainable development and improving community life.
