Delegates attended the conference.

Speaking at the opening of the conference, the chairmen shared the same opinion: Tourism has become a key economic sector of the Northwest provinces and Ho Chi Minh city and Luang Prabang. The conference is an opportunity for localities to further strengthen the introduction, promotion and promotion of destinations, tourism products and cultural heritages.

On that basis, we will build a tourism development orientation in the direction of connection and cooperation, in order to create opportunities for tourism businesses and units of the two countries to promote information exchange and development the market and attract tourists.

Speaking at the conference, leaders of provinces and businesses said that: the Northwest region and Luang Prabang province have many cultural similarities, but also have their own, unique and specific features; The people of the two countries have a close relationship, a tradition of solidarity, attachment and mutual understanding. These are favorable conditions to promote bilateral tourism development.

However, along with Ho Chi Minh City, tourism development cooperation between the Northwest provinces and Luang Prabang still has many limitations and is not commensurate with the available potential. The reason is that investment resources for developing transport infrastructure are still difficult, circulation is still inadequate, leading to high costs and difficulty in building bilateral tours and tourist routes.
