(VOVWORLD) -An estimated 2.2 million people visited Hanoi in February, including 383,000 foreigners, bringing the total number of tourists to 4.2 million so far this year, the municipal Tourism Department reported on Wednesday.
Dang Huong Giang, Director of the Hanoi Tourism Department, said that in March, the agency will continue to work with provinces and cities to develop cultural and spiritual tour routes: Hanoi-Ha Nam-Ninh Binh, Hanoi-Son La, Hanoi-Lao Cai-Lai Chau, and others.
According to Giang, Hanoi has come up with solutions to help the capital's tourism industry grow.
“With its strong growth, Hanoi continues to be honored by international tourism organizations. Most worthy of note is being honored by the World Tourism Organization as Asia's Leading City for Short-Term Vacations and the World's Leading City Break Destination,” said Giang.
