To exploit border tourism through Hoanh Mo border gate

Recently, Binh Lieu tourism has been receiving attention for investment and strong transformation. This place has become a year-round tourist attraction with diverse products and types of tourism, including border tourism through the open Hoanh Mo border gate.

According to assessments, this also opens up many prospects for more cooperation and economic and cultural exchange activities.

To promote and create attraction for visitors, Binh Lieu also calculated and prepared carefully. Accordingly, it is expected that there will be a number of routes and points with unique cultural characteristics and landscapes that are basically shaped to welcome visitors, such as: Hoanh Mo Border Gate - Binh Lieu Market - Khe Van Waterfall - Cao Ly Mountain; Hoanh Mo Border Gate - Cao Son Flower Garden - Cao Ly Mountain; Hoanh Mo Border Gate - cassia growing and processing area... These tours have similarities but still have their own unique features and novelty. The low consumer price index and food services at Binh Lieu destination are also factors that create attraction for border tourism in the area.

Regarding infrastructure and accommodation for tourists, Binh Lieu currently has sufficient facilities, can prepare 300-400 rooms, capable of accommodating about 1,000 guests, including hotels that are completing documents for 2-3 star recognition.

However, in the short term, tourists may only visit during the day, so it may not affect the ability of accommodation services to meet the demand.
