Investment to tourism along Lang Co beach nears 3 billion USD
The Chan May-Lang Co Economic Zone in the central province of Thua Thien-Hue has so far attracted 21 tourism projects totaling more than 67 trillion VND (2.86 billion USD).
In the first five months of this year, the zone attracted eight investment projects, including four foreign-invested ones with a total registered capital of over 60 million USD.
Since Lang Co was voted one of the world’s most beautiful bays by WorldBays Club in June 2009, it has become a popular destination for holiday-makers. The number of the tourists to the beach makes up 16 percent of the total to Thua Thien-Hue.
