According to information from the People's Committee of Thuong Tin district, currently in the district, the City People's Committee has recognized 4 tourist destinations including: Hong Van ornamental plant craft village tourist destination, Ha Thai lacquer craft village, Thuy Ung horn craft village and Van Diem high-class carpentry village tourist destination.
Although the city has recognized a number of tourist attractions, attracting visitors has been difficult due to the lack of specific tours. The development of the tourism program “Duyen Thai Craft Village Art” will create opportunities for villagers to introduce the unique values of the two crafts of lacquerware and votive paper making in Ha Thai and Phuc Am villages (Duyen Thai commune) to tourists.
Deputy Head of the Department of Culture and Information of Thuong Tin district, Tran Thi Lan, said that Phuc Am is a village famous for its production of votive paper and offerings associated with the spiritual culture and practice of the Vietnamese Mother Goddess worship (recognized by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage in 2016).
Ha Thai lacquer craft village has existed and developed for more than 200 years, producing according to manual technology, using natural materials to create products with high durability and eye-catching colors. "The tourism program "Duyen Thai Craft Village Art" is not only an opportunity for villagers to promote their products, but also an opportunity to develop a sustainable economy based on cultural and artistic values" - Ms. Lan clearly stated.
In order for tourism businesses to build tours to bring visitors to Thuong Tin, Permanent Vice President of the Vietnam Tourism Association Phung Quang Thang suggested that in the coming time, the locality needs to promote investment in infrastructure, improve the quality of parking lots, landscapes, homestay accommodation, souvenir shops, production workshops and tourism experiences...
