Take advantage of potential and strengths
Thanks to the Na Hang hydroelectric lake, Lam Binh has a rather interesting natural landscape, long known as "Ha Long Bay in the middle of the forest" of Tuyen Quang. With an area of over 80,000 hectares of water surface, the lake is clear all year round. Along with the majestic mountain ranges stretching far and wide, it has created a captivating ink painting, and these are the resources that motivate the Tay people in Lam Binh to do community tourism .
The Tay people in Lam Binh district have a fairly dense population, but they have retained their traditional cultural identity, along with the original stilt houses that have been maintained for many decades.
The pristine beauty of Na Hang hydroelectric lake attracts many tourists.
Since 2018, the leaders of Lam Binh District People's Committee have identified the goal of developing community tourism, creating jobs and increasing income for people. With the dynamism, creativity and enthusiasm of the district leaders, the Tay people in Lam Binh have started doing tourism from the initial confusion. The district leaders invited consulting units to train people, and took people to visit and learn from experiences in localities with previous tourism experience. Within a year, the community tourism model in Lam Binh was formed and put into operation quite smoothly.
Long Tong Festival is one of the famous and unique festivals of Tuyen Quang.
Ms. Trieu Thi Xuong, owner of Hoang Tuan homestay, Na Tong village, Thuong Lam commune, said: “When I first started doing tourism, I was very hesitant, but after being encouraged by the district leaders, my family was determined to invest in renovating the infrastructure, investing in equipment, learning from experience, and then gradually getting used to it. Up to now, I have also invested in buying horses, bicycles, kayaks... to serve the needs of tourists.”
"In the early days, the sisters went to the district to train in tourism, which was very difficult. From folding blankets and curtains, cleaning rooms, to cooking, making drinks..., they had to learn every little thing. But in general, the Tay sisters here are very determined, not afraid of difficulties, very hard-working and enthusiastic in learning to do. Up to now, the Tay people in Lam Binh have become much more proficient in welcoming and serving tourists when they come to Lam Binh," said Ms. Xuong.
Synchronous and sustainable development strategy
The good point of the Lam Binh tourism development program is that they do not concentrate all the Homestay points in one village or commune, but the Homestay families are arranged to disperse in different communes and villages. From there, creating uniformity, in addition to the Homestay families, other households can participate in boat transport services, cooking, participating in the art troupe...etc. Therefore, no matter which village the tourist group comes to, there is a human resource to serve quite attentively. Thanks to that, the local women also have more jobs and a fairly stable source of income.
Performing arts team serving tourists to Lam Binh
All families working in tourism comply with regulations and rules on service attitude and service prices, so in Lam Binh, tourists never have to complain about bad service attitude or overcharging.
The ecological environment in the village is also thoroughly kept clean, flowers and ornamental plants are planted, and decorations are in accordance with the traditional culture of the nation, thanks to which the village landscape is increasingly beautiful.
Mr. Nguyen Van Hien, Chief of Office of the National Assembly Delegation and People's Council of Tuyen Quang Province (former Vice Chairman of Lam Binh District People's Committee, the person in charge of the program to develop community tourism in Lam Binh District from the early days), said: "When the district organized tourism development, we determined that, in addition to natural landscapes, we must take advantage of traditional cultural values as the core of development, thereby creating unique values of local tourism, such as festivals, folk songs, and traditional folk dances that are included in cultural tourism products. Up to now, these tourism products have been highly appreciated by domestic and foreign tourists when coming to Lam Binh".
