According to Mr. Nguyen Van Hung, manager of a tourist attraction in Da Lat , while in the past, tourists simply admired the beautiful scenery, the decorations, the arrangement of models and flowers, praised the beauty if they liked it, took photos as souvenirs, and then left, now this seems only suitable for older tourists.
Refreshing Da Lat to make it an attractive tourist destination.
Today's tourism trends are no longer limited to simply sightseeing in the traditional way; tourists also desire to immerse themselves in exciting experiences that evoke both feelings and emotions. Therefore, many tourism service providers in Da Lat City (Lam Dong province) are striving to "reinvent themselves" if they don't want to lose tourists and fall behind.

In reality, the age of tourists is getting younger, while older tourists, loyal to traditional forms of tourism, account for a small market share and have limited spending. Therefore, continuously innovating and creating business models that suit the tastes of tourists has become a top priority for those working in the tourism industry in Da Lat over the past 5 years. Recognizing this trend, Mr. Nguyen Dinh Quan Quy (residing in Ward 12, Da Lat City), a professional investor in the tourism sector, and his associates regularly develop ideas, build, and innovate their tourist destinations.
Quy and his colleagues target tourists under 50 years old. Therefore, the motto when developing tourist destinations is "sell what customers need" rather than "sell what we have." Thus, uniqueness, aesthetics, novelty, creativity, and the constant introduction of new models and products, especially high levels of interaction with tourists, are top priorities for tourism professionals like Quy.
