Discovering a typical village practicing Net Zero tourism is an activity in a series of communication programs on green tourism in the direction of Net Zero initiated by Ho Chi Minh City Tourism Magazine.
Through the programs, we hope to create a network of connections between tourists - product developers - destinations and localities to promote responsible tourism practices.
Sustainable tourism towards Net Zero tourism is no longer a trend, it has become an existing need. According to a survey by Booking.com (2023), in Vietnam alone, 97% of tourists want to participate in sustainable tourism destinations.

Accordingly, this program aims to introduce a model of sustainable tourism practice in the direction of Net Zero, from planning to practical operation. Welcoming guests from May 2022, Lang Nho - Ho Lang Nhot in Da Mai village, Dien Khanh district, Khanh Hoa province is a pioneering natural picnic resort in the first Glamping and Pop-Up Resort model in Vietnam.
The design focuses on Lang Nhot Lake with 2 hot and cold streams originating from Hon Ba Nature Reserve. Here, visitors can participate in wonderful and interesting natural experiences with professionally upgraded folk activities.
Notably, there are "Ta Bathing" activities such as forest bathing - stream bathing - waterfall bathing, enjoying relaxation and refreshment right in the arms of Mother Nature. Visitors can also participate in other ecological exploration activities such as trekking through forests and streams, hiking trails, traveling to Lang Nhot Lake, cycling, flying kites, harvesting agricultural products...
Especially, the spacious campus is suitable for organizing collective activities such as: Team building, summer camp, professional activities or agricultural activities connecting with farmers, allowing visitors to experience rural life with the Forest Owner.
According to Mr. Nguyen Manh Binh San - owner of Lang Nho area, one of the three principles of implementing sustainable tourism is to simultaneously practice three actions: Saving natural and environmental space; Cultural context, unique existing cultural works and finally the responsibility to return exploited resources.
Restoring the ecosystem, maximizing green infrastructure, and building with zero environmental impact using prefabricated structures are important criteria throughout the village construction process.
To have an area safe enough for sustainable tourism, the total area is 165 hectares, but more than half of it is a core protection belt of 80 hectares - an area determined to be able to convey the message of sustainability.
All activities from planning to operation are based on the principle of limiting emissions. Electric cars, bicycles and bamboo are the main means of transportation in the village.
