Tourist attractions in Nghe An are ready to welcome visitors during the National Day holiday on September 2nd.

Enhance the experience

With a relatively long holiday and pleasant weather, many people chose to "head up the mountain" this year to visit and experience eco-tourism and community-based tourism destinations in western Nghe An province. As autumn arrives, the weather is no longer scorching hot, the sky is a deep blue, and the sunlight is bright yellow; spending time in the mountains and exploring the beauty of the villages is a truly sensible decision.

Understanding the preferences of tourists, tourist destinations in western Nghe An province have made thorough preparations to welcome and serve visitors. According to Mr. Dang Trong Tan, Director of Hon Mat Tourist Area (Nghia Dan district), several groups have already contacted him to visit and experience the area. To serve visitors during the National Day holiday, he has built two additional villas and put them into service, increasing the number of guests to 70.

“The landscaping system has been enhanced, more check-in points have been built, and there are koi ponds, pet gardens, and orchards. A wider variety of products and services have been offered, and staffing has been increased for the holiday season. At the same time, promotional policies are being implemented, and we are committed to not increasing prices, even during the holidays,” said Mr. Dang Trong Tan.

At Hon Mat, visitors can immerse themselves in the dreamy natural scenery, take motorboats and canoes to admire the vast lake and hills. There are also venues for parties, cultural and artistic exchanges, and a children's playground.

Similar to Hon Mat, the Pha Lai eco-tourism area (Con Cuong) has received many inquiries from tourists seeking experiences during the National Day holiday. At Pha Lai, visitors primarily explore the beauty of the mountains and forests of Pu Mat and the cultural life and customs of the Thai ethnic minority. Traditional Thai dishes such as five-colored sticky rice, grilled meat, meatballs, and catfish have also been collected and prepared to serve tourists during the holiday.

Ms. Vi Thi Tham, Director of Pha Lai Eco-tourism Area, said: “We have contacted homestays and accommodation establishments in the area to prepare rooms, meals, and cultural performances to welcome and serve guests during the holiday. With cheerfulness, hospitality, and professional service, we hope many tourists will feel comfortable and enjoy their visit to the Con Cuong mountains and forests during this special occasion.”

On this occasion, community tourism destinations including Xieng village (Mon Son), Nua village (Yen Khe), and Khe Ran (Bong Khe) have also practiced and staged cultural performances, and prepared ingredients for cooking to serve and interact with tourists.

Along with Con Cuong, other eco-tourism and community-based tourism destinations in the Mekong Delta such as Hoa Tien (Quy Chau); Co Muong, Muong Dan (Que Phong) and Khe Co, Yen Hoa (Tuong Duong) have also fully prepared and are ready in terms of infrastructure, food sources and cultural activities to welcome, serve and interact with tourists.

Add more check-in points.

Mr. Lu Thanh Long, owner of Lam Khang homestay in the Muong Dan community tourism area, Hanh Dich commune (Que Phong district), said: “The locals here have thoroughly cleaned the village, ensuring it is green, clean, and beautiful. The village's performing arts group practices regularly and is always ready to perform and interact with tourists. Especially, in Muong Dan, visitors can enjoy dishes with rich mountain and forest flavors such as sticky rice cooked in bamboo tubes, moss, meatballs, river fish, etc.”

In particular, Nhat Minh Farmstay in Chau Thon commune (Que Phong district) is considered a fascinating experience with mountain breezes, endless clouds, and stunning mountain and forest scenery, along with a space steeped in nostalgic charm. Here, there are unique check-in spots, allowing visitors to capture striking photos, giving them the feeling of being transported to a European meadow.

Anticipating a large influx of visitors, the owner of Nhat Minh Farmstay has renovated several facilities, set up additional check-in points, and prepared a supply of clean food such as black pigs, free-range chickens, and fish to serve the needs of tourists.

On Thanh Chuong tea island, boat owners have carried out safety checks and repairs to their vessels to best serve tourists. At the same time, they have gathered food supplies, mainly grilled free-range chicken, for tourists to enjoy.

Thus, tourist destinations in Nghe An are ready to serve tourists during the National Day holiday on September 2nd, with the hope of providing enjoyable and memorable experiences for visitors.
