A “Golden Tourism Week” will take place in the Hue ancient imperial relic site, a UNESCO-recognised World Heritage, in the central Thua Thien-Hue province from June 15-21.
The centre will also hold a number of special tourism and cultural events and launch new services to attract tourists, including art performances and exhibitions.
The centre’s Director, Phan Thanh Hai, said that as of mid-June, the relic site had welcomed nearly 970,000 tourists this year, 504,000 of which were foreigners. Tourism revenue has reached VND90.4 billion (US$4.15 million), the highest recorded in the first five and a half months of a year.
The centre will organise two other promotion weeks this year, from September 2-8 and from December 24-30.
