To achieve these impressive numbers, as well as for Lai Chau to achieve the target of 8.5% growth in total tourist arrivals this year, in order to realize the Prime Minister's Official Dispatch No. 34/CD-TTg dated April 10, 2025 on promoting tourism development, ensuring double-digit economic growth, the Department of Culture - Sports and Tourism has synchronously deployed many important solutions to create momentum to promote growth and attract tourists to Lai Chau to experience and explore its unique characteristics.
“Lai Chau city has a fresh, cool climate, which is a suitable place to cultivate and develop rare orchid species, especially wild orchids such as trumpet orchids, chicken thigh orchids, and narcissus... The "Lai Chau Fragrance" Orchid Festival creates a playground for many artisans and gardeners inside and outside the province to exchange and share experiences in orchid growing and care techniques. Coming to the Orchid Festival in 2025, in addition to admiring the rustic, charming, and colorful beauty of more than 700 orchid works from 40 orchid clubs and associations and 120 gardeners nationwide; witnessing the bird singing contest with 50 bird cages by artisans from the provinces: Lai Chau, Dien Bien, Lao Cai, Yen Bai, Phu Tho, we also enjoy unique culinary dishes, experience and explore the distinctive cultural identities at the community tourism sites: Sin Suoi Ho, Si Thau Chai, Lao Brush…” - Mr. Pham Xuan Truong, Vice President of Ha Dong Orchid Association (Hanoi) shared.

These unique events have contributed to attracting a large number of tourists to visit, experience and explore, thereby contributing to increasing revenue from accommodation, food and beverage and transportation services.
The xoe dance at the Then Kin Pang Festival (Phong Tho district) in 2025 attracts a large number of tourists and people to experience and explore.
