tourism season
|
The Hai Phong People’s
Committee on March 31 held a meeting to
inaugurate the Cat Ba tourism season.
Deputy Chairman of the Committee Nguyen
Van Thanh affirmed that the attractive
Cat Ba Island lures many tourists at
home and abroad. Ca Ba is also one of
the five sea conservation sites of
Vietnam and has sufficient factors to
build geological park.
Sport events such as traditional dragon
boat racing, volleyball tournament and
kayak boat racing were organised at Cat
Ba Bay on April 1 to start the tourism
season.
Also on the occasion, the authority
called on the local people and tourists
to vote for Ha Long Bay to become one of
the seven world wonders. More than 1,000
people, including 160 foreigners have
voted for Ha Long Bay on the day.
