Vinh Loi district has the advantage of many historical, cultural and spiritual relics, rich products, etc., which are very favorable for the development of eco-tourism and experience activities. In order to meet the entertainment and exploration needs of tourists, the district has developed a plan to develop the night economy of the culinary and entertainment area on Nguyen Thi Dan street. Regarding this issue, Mr. Tran Anh Thi - Chairman of Vinh Loi District People's Committee, said:

To attract and "retain" tourists staying in the locality, it is necessary to have a culinary and nighttime entertainment area. Vinh Loi district has formed a modern, attractive culinary and nighttime entertainment area imbued with local identity. Specifically, building a plan to develop the night-time economy of the culinary and entertainment area on Nguyen Thi Dan street (Chau Hung town) associated with the historical relic site of Giac Hoa pagoda - a pagoda with a history of more than 150 years, creating a close link between spiritual tourism and entertainment, dining, enjoying cultural activities, performances, physical education - sports ... Forming a vibrant, diverse and rich cultural - artistic and religious space.

Nguyen Thi Dan Street is 535m long and 14m wide with basic infrastructure available. The district will reinforce it such as paving the sidewalk, planting trees to create shade and a clean and beautiful landscape. On either side is the Xeo Chich River, with an embankment and a cool walking path, suitable for building a walking street, a culinary space, night entertainment, etc. Accordingly, the district will build a traditional local cultural space, a night culinary and entertainment area, improve the living environment, and serve the needs of local people and tourists. Specifically: a local specialty culinary area serving traditional dishes, OCOP dishes, vegetarian specialties; an entertainment area for young people (organizing folk games, outdoor movies, street music , etc.); a traditional cultural and artistic space such as amateur music, displaying craft village products; a small commercial area selling handicrafts, gifts, and OCOP products; walking space, riverside relaxation, creating check-in points, night scenery...

Mr. Tran Anh Thi: In the immediate future, the district will periodically organize cultural and culinary festivals every month or every quarter. Folk art performances, cultural exchanges, physical training and sports on weekends. Organize night markets, book fairs, agricultural product exhibition areas... Thereby, aiming to attract tourists to visit, worship at spiritual tourist attractions and stay in the locality. Create opportunities for business households, cooperatives, small enterprises, promote consumption; contribute to creating jobs for young workers, students...

On the other hand, the formation and development of the night entertainment and culinary area on Nguyen Thi Dan Street will contribute to preserving and promoting local culture, improving the spiritual life of the people. The District People's Committee will mobilize social resources, combined with initial support budget; call on businesses to invest in exploiting the night economic zone. At the same time, strengthen communication and promote new tourist routes; connect with tours in the province to bring visitors to this area...
