 (TITC) - To honor the quintessence and diversity of cuisine as well as cultural characteristics of Asian countries, in 2018, Viet Nam hosts the Asian food and culture festival for the first time named Mon Asian Food Festival (MAFF 2018). Accordingly, the festival will take place from 20 – 22 April 2018 at Mon City My Dinh (Ha Noi) and 27 – 29 April 2018 at 30 Thang 10 Square, Ha Long City, Quang Ninh Province.

The northern province of Phu Tho launched a daily tour from Ha Noi to the land of Hung Kings in early April, allowing tourists to explore traditional Xoan singing. The tour is designed to boost tourism and preserve the local intangible heritage, according to a local official. France is one of the main partners of the Hue Festival, which is set to take place in the central province of Thua Thien-Hue from April 27 to May 2. Social platforms are effective channels where online tourism firms interact with potential customers, and the travel industry must transform to keep pace with technological changes, experts have said.

To achieve this outstanding result, tourism promotion activities play a vital part. However, much is needed to be done to improve the work.
