Thua Thien-Hue prepares to market community based and eco tourism

A seminar aiming to promote the concept of community based tourism was held in the central city of Hue. The idea was co-ordinated between farmers, travel companies and the tourism administration.
A proposal to create and market seven exclusive tours was put forward and discussed by those in the tourism trade. The plan included tour visits to the ancient village of Phuoc Tich; to Thanh Tien village which is known for its paper flower craft; to Sinh village famous for folk painting; to the Tam Giang Lagoon; to the Thanh Toan tiled bridge and to the Nam Dong and A Luoi areas for eco-tourism.
Several training workshops have now been organized to help residents to promote and market their local areas and tap all available resources to showcase their villages.
The seminar also focused on developing community based tourism in Thua Thien-Hue Province.
