Vietnam travel news on 05 April 2017

Northwest tourism
The Northwest of Vietnam is a beautiful region with great potential for adventure, homestay, trekking, culture and photography tour. However, it has not come to expectations due to poor infrastructure, lack of skilled employees, awareness of local people and ability of authorities.

The northwest has some of the most photographed places in Vietnam such as Mai Chau valley, Phu Luong natural reserve, Mu Cang Chai rice terraces, Xin Ho, Sapa mountains and villages, Y Ty, Bac Ha market, etc. The northwest tour package is the highlight on your Vietnam travel, but not many tourists know about this region and ready to spend a week in the mountainous area.

To develop the northwest tourism, authorities have worked out several plans like H'Mong festival in Moc Chau, Sapa festival to draw tourists' attention, but things need to be improved and more action must be taken.

Hanoi international travel mart
