Australian famtrip delegation explores tourist attractions in Quy Nhon
VOV.VN - Representatives from Australian travel businesses, buyers, wholesalers, international travel agents, and media are joining a famtrip to Quy Nhon ward, Gia Lai province, from May 25 to 28.
The event, jointly organised by the Gia Lai Tourism Association, the provincial Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism and TMS Group, aims to promote Quy Nhon as a new destination rich in identity, with tourism products linked to heritage, coastal experiences and highland culture tailored for Australian travellers.
According to organisers, Quy Nhon is positioned not only as a beach destination but also as a gateway to a distinctive tourism journey combining blue seas, Champa heritage, Binh Dinh traditional martial arts and the highland culture of Gia Lai.
The famtrip delegation on May 25 visited the Gia Lai Museum, where they were introduced to exhibits showcasing the region’s nature, people and cultural heritage. The delegation also explored intangible cultural heritage elements including hát bội (classical opera), bài chòi folk singing, Binh Dinh traditional martial arts and Champa culture.
In the coming days, the foreign tourists will continue to explore destinations in the eastern area of the province, such as Hon Kho Island, Eo Gio, The Thon beach resort, Nuoc Man trading port, Lang Song Minor Seminary, Long Phuoc Pagoda, Banh It Tower, Duong Long Tower, and Phu Gia conical hat village.
The delegation will also survey tourism products associated with Binh Dinh's traditional martial arts, traditional craft villages, and high-end resort services at Grand Hyams Hotel Quy Nhon Beach in Quy Nhon ward.
The highlight will be a programme to introduce Gia Lai tourism to the Australian market, which is slated for May 28 at the Grand Hyams Hotel Quy Nhon Beach. The event will bring together local authorities, tourism associations, travel companies, hotels and service providers to strengthen B2B connections and expand opportunities to attract international visitors, particularly from Australia, to Quy Nhon and Gia Lai in the near future.
