As many as 6,000 Thai tourists arrived in Hue in a single day this year.

This is the result of the close co-operation between Vietnam, Laos and Thailand in improving transport infrastructure, expanding trade exchanges across the borders and reforming migration procedures to facilitate tourism services.

Especially, the East-West Economic Corridor stretching through Myanmar, Thailand and Laos to Vietnam has opened up a lot of economic co-operation opportunities for member countries and the East sea bordered region, particularly in the tourism sector.

As of early December this year, the central province of Thua Thien-Hue had received 1.36 million visitors, a year-on-year increase of 11.7%, of which the number of foreign visitors to Hue city increased by 7.9%. The province’s tourism industry earned VND 774 billion, up 20.4% as compared to the same period last year. (VNA)
