ANTD.VN - Tet is not only an important time of the year but also becomes a specialty tourism "product" of Hanoi with the appearance of the 2024 Spring Fair on a "huge" scale and hundreds of unique experiential activities, completely different from previous programs.
Tourists increase dramatically every time Tet comes and Spring comes.
According to the Hanoi Department of Tourism, during the 3-day New Year holiday (from December 30, 2023 to January 1, 2024), the number of tourists to Hanoi is estimated to reach 402,000, an increase of 65% over the same period last year. Of which, international visitors are estimated to increase 2.1 times with 72,000; domestic tourists are estimated to increase 59% with 330,000. Total revenue from tourists is estimated to reach nearly 1,500 billion VND, an increase of 73% over the same period in 2023.
Previously, during the 5-day Lunar New Year holiday of Quy Mao 2023 (from January 21, 2023 to January 26, 2023), Hanoi also recorded a surge in the number of tourists with about 332,000 arrivals. Of which, there were about 32,000 international tourists and 300,000 domestic tourists.
The number of tourists coming to Hanoi increased sharply during Tet thanks to unique activities and events imbued with Vietnamese culture. |
With that attraction, Tet is not only an important time of the year but also becomes a special tourism "product" of Hanoi. However, many experts believe that the tourism industry has not yet fully exploited its resources, the potential for tourists is still very abundant. The reason is that besides traditional destinations, Hanoi still has very few large-scale programs, enough to keep tourists in Hanoi to enjoy the uniqueness of Vietnamese Tet culture during this special period.
Hanoi needs more large-scale programs besides traditional destinations during Tet |
Therefore, the 2024 Spring Fair taking place in Ocean City with the largest scale in Vietnam will be the first event that combines the large scale of a new metropolitan area and fully simulates the traditional Tet atmosphere, promising to become the most attractive Spring Fair in the North.
