Ms. Le Thao Trang (32 years old, tourist from Ho Chi Minh City) said: "It was only 10 pm but the shops in the center of Tuy Hoa were already cleaning up. After going to Nghinh Phong tower, we walked around a bit and had a drink at a nearby shop before returning to the hotel."
Mr. Nguyen Van Khang (tourist from Da Nang) shared that Tuy Hoa should create more night tours such as night art performances at Nhan Tower, bars and clubs along the coast should be really vibrant and extend their operating hours to 3am, or have 24/7 coffee shops for guests to drink coffee and watch the night view of the city...
According to Mr. Ho Van Tien - Chairman of Phu Yen Tourism Association, the locality has organized many events and night tourism products in the past but still cannot meet the needs of tourists because of limited operating time and unspecial products.
"Although there are night streets and night markets, the items sold here are very popular, such as clothes, grilled skewers...
"The city should display and sell specialties, organize themed market activities such as displays, experiences playing lithophones, experiences eating tuna meat... In addition, it is necessary to create favorable conditions in terms of premises or promotion so that businesses and individuals can do business with peace of mind," Mr. Tien suggested.
