VOV.VN - Da Nang City, the tourism hub in central Vietnam, welcomed 8.7 million arrivals over the past nine months, marking growth of 33.3% year on year, according to the city's Statistics Office.
Among the arrivals were more than 3.2 million foreign travellers, up 30.6% year on year, and 5.5 million domestic holidaymakers, up 34.9%. said the municipal statistics agency.
The robust tourism recovery resulted in strong revenue increases of restaurant and accommodation services, up by 23% to nearly VND21 trillion.
Currently, international visitors to Da Nang are mainly Korean, Japanese, Indian, Southeast Asian, and American. In addition, local authorities continue to promote key international markets in Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia, while simultaneously working to attract customers from potential markets such as India, Australia, the United States, and northern Europe.
Da Nang, designed as a destination of Meeting, Incentives, Conferencing and Exhibition (MICE) events, has set a target of hosting 8.4 million visitors this year.
Early this year, several of the city’s resorts were chosen as ideal venues for Indian couples' weddings and accommodation for their relatives and friends to stay at for several days.
