Accordingly, the planning of Hoa Binh Lake national tourism site in Hoa Binh province aims to put into details the overall development blueprint for the tourism site to 2030.
In addition, the regional planning aims to develop the site into a key destination in the northern mid-land and mountainous region with unique tourism products associated with the Muong ethnic culture and the rich ecological system in the lake.
The planning tasks include defining the directions for land use, social and technical infrastructure, environmental sanitation, and services for the tourism site. In addition, the planning should also design connectivity between the site and other scenic spots and tourism sites in the region.
There will be several steps to deploy this plan, including analysis and evaluation on the natural condition, the socio-economic, tourism status and the cultural characteristics of the Hoa Binh lake national site.
Under the approved planning tasks, the Hoa Binh lake national tourism site is located in Hoa Binh town (Thai Thinh commune and Thai Binh, Phuong Lam, Tan Thinh wards) and four districts namely Da Bac (Dong Ruong, Yen Hoa, Cao Son, Tien Phong Vay Nua, Hien Luong and Toan Son communes), Cao Phong (Binh Thanh and Thung Nai communes), Tan Lac (Ngoi Hoa, Phu Vinh and Trung Hoa communes), and Mai Chau (Tan Dan, Tan Mai, Phuc San, Dong Bang and Ba Khan communes).
According to the plan, the Hoa Binh lake will be the main tourism site of the northern mid-land and mountainous region with the typical tourism products characterized by the local Muong ethnic culture and the lake’s ecological system. In addition, the site also has many functions such as generating electricity, providing water, controlling flood and preserving water resources.
