Da Nang announces southern tourism tour "Touching Nature"

This event marks a new stage in expanding tourism space and strengthening connections between the city center and the potentially rich southern regions.

This also represents the initial implementation of Plan No. 499/KH-UBND dated September 28, 2026, of the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City on the development of key tourism in the southern region for the period 2026-2030, with the goal of forming, perfecting, and exploiting 12-15 new tourism programs.

Currently, more than 6 travel agencies have developed nearly 25 tour programs to introduce and sell to tourists visiting key areas in the southern region.

Speaking at the event, Mr. Van Ba ​​Son, Deputy Director of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, said that expanding tourism space to the south aims to diversify products, distribute tourist flows, extend the length of stay, and spread the benefits of tourism to localities and communities.

The southern part of the city boasts advantages in terms of rivers, lakes, fields, villages, and the sea, along with historical, cultural, culinary , and local product values. Tourism development should exploit these original values ​​to create products and experiences with a unique identity.

In the first nine months of 2026, several tourist destinations in the south, such as Tak Po (Tra Tap commune), welcomed nearly 7,200 visitors for overnight stays, sightseeing, and experiences; Loc Yen (Thanh Binh commune) 35,000; Tam Hai commune 42,000; the Monument to the Heroic Vietnamese Mother (Quang Phu ward) 90,000; Phu Ninh Lake (Phu Ninh commune) 14,496...

The southern region has connecting routes such as National Highway 1, the Da Nang - Quang Ngai Expressway, the Da Nang - Chu Lai coastal road, and National Highway 40B. Tourism resources are diverse, ranging from historical and cultural sites, rivers and waterways, rural areas, coastal regions to lakes, mountains, and highland areas.

Tours are being developed with various themes such as "A journey to touch the pristine nature of southern Da Nang", "Touching the original - A journey to the legendary Ngoc Linh peak", "Legends of Quang land - Peaceful nature", "A journey to historical revolutionary sites"...

In the coming period, the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism will continue to coordinate with localities, travel businesses and the community to improve products, enhance service quality, strengthen promotion and market connections; and at the same time, research and develop a plan for tourism development in the southern region for the period 2026 - 2030, with a vision to 2035.
