Generally, things are looking good for the travel industry, according to figures of the Hanoi Department of Tourism (DoT), with the number of domestic guests visiting the city also rising to roughly 9 million, a new record high.

Related tourism revenue also shot up for the six-month period from January-June, rising by 24%.
