IF THEY BUILD IT, THEY WILL COME…

Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung has urged Hanoi and other localities nationwide to build the Culture-Tourism Village of Vietnamese Ethnic Groups in the Son Tay District of Ha Noi. The aim is to help to develop villages and localities into attractive destinations for foreign and domestic tourists. The village, located on a 1,544-ha area in Dong Mo, is composed of traditional Vietnamese architecture that highlights the unique characteristics of the country’s culture. The Vietnamese Ethnic Culture-Tourism Village project, approved by the Prime Minister in 2008, aims to honour and preserve the cultural value of Viet Nam’s 54 ethnic groups and promote Viet Nam’s image to the world. It is also expected to become the nation’s cultural, sports and tourism centre to meet the public’s demands for recreation and display aspects of the country’s cultural heritage.
