The province was selected to host the national event, which is expected to help it welcome 5.5 million domestic and foreign travellers this year.
Over the past five years, the locality has been making great efforts to improve its infrastructure and accommodation services with the aim of contributing to a successful National Tourism Year.

Eleven new tours linked with a variety of local tourist attractions have been launched, including tours on the Ma River, Ma Hao waterfalls and Nang Cat Community Village.
The province has cooperated with neighbouring Ninh Binh Province and other central provinces to create new tours and tourism products.
The province has also put into operation a number of social and cultural facilities since the beginning of this year, such as Lam Son theatre, a modern library, an exhibition centre and a temple to commemorate heroic mothers and martyrs.
Thanks to these efforts, Thanh Hoa received about 5.11 million visitors in the first 11 months of this year, up 15.7% compared to the same period last year and reaching 92.9% of the annual target.
Of the figure, 119,000 were foreigners, a year-on-year increase of 31.2%.
