Endless potential
On the administrative map of Vietnam, Thai Nguyen province is like a junction between the midland and mountainous regions and the provinces of the Northern Delta. Thai Nguyen possesses an endless source of resources for the development of the tourism industry: More than 1,000 historical and cultural relics; over 550 intangible cultural heritages.... It is an "open-pit gold mine", the more it is exploited, the more abundant the reserves become.
Mr. Vu The Binh, Chairman of Vietnam Tourism Association, confided: Through tourism activities, the unique cultural beauty in the spiritual life of the people; the historical and cultural relics of the locality are passed on, preserved and have eternal vitality over time.
The unique cultural beauty in the spiritual life of ethnic minorities; historical and cultural relics become the driving force to attract domestic and international tourists to Thai Nguyen. For example, Tham Roc puppetry of the Tay people in Dinh Hoa; Soong Co singing of the San Diu people (Dong Hy); Tac Xinh dance of the San Chay people (Phu Luong); Cap Sac ceremony of the Dao people (Dai Tu) ... captivate tourists.
Then traditional craft villages such as: Handicraft Village (Phu Binh), Bo Dau Banh Chung Village (Phu Luong), Palm Blind Weaving Village (Dinh Hoa)... also "awakened" to welcome tourists.
In particular, from 2011 to present, Thai Nguyen province has organized 4 tea festivals, becoming the capital of delicious tea, in which there is the cultural depth of a land rich in revolutionary and hospitable traditions.
Thai Nguyen is proud to be known nationwide as the Capital of Winds, home to the ATK Dinh Hoa National Special Historical Relic Site, with 128 relic sites; Van Mountain - Vo Mountain Relic Site; Duom Temple worshiping famous general Duong Tu Minh; Muc Temple worshiping Ly Nam De; National Historical Relic Site of 60 martyrs of the 915th Youth Volunteer Company, 91st Team of Bac Thai...
Cultural heritage is preserved and passed down through generations like a treasure. The more it is exploited, the stronger its value becomes.

During the year, by organizing annual activities such as: "Through the Viet Bac heritage sites" program; opening the tourism year, organizing Famtrip and Presstrip groups to introduce areas and destinations, the Provincial Tourism Steering Committee has coordinated with provinces and cities across the country to organize seminars and conferences to promote tourism. Thereby connecting Thai Nguyen Tourism Association to sign cooperation agreements on tourism development with nearly 20 tourism associations in the 3 regions of North - Central - South.
The agreement on tourism development cooperation between the associations focuses on training and improving human resources; developing tourism products; promoting, calling for investment in tourism development and mutual support in tourism development.
