The figures are impressive as in 2016, the locality just North of the capital city of Hanoi welcomed only 3.8 million tourist arrivals, including 28,000 foreign visitors, and 5.2 million arrivals, including 40,200 foreign visitors, in 2018.

Authorities attributed the rises to the development of typical local tourist products over the recent years like weekend resort services, forest eco-tourism, cultural and historic tourism. A special product is the homestay services offered by families in Tam Dao resort town which is proving very effective in attracting tourists.
