Determining tourism as one significant economic sector of the province, Phu Yen is drastically concentrating on gradually forming tourism products, forming tourism human resources, and tourism brand name, with the target of turning Phu Yen province into one friendly and attractive destination.
EXPLOITING THE HIDDEN CHARM
There have been lots of assessments on the tourism potentials as well as the natural beauty of Phu Yen tourism, but what I do love most is the very metaphoric and poetic comparison of journalist Hong Phuong: Phu Yen possesses the hidden charm! The charm lies in the neglected, simple and spontaneous features…like one obedient mild young girl, the hidden charm carves the deep impression into a tourist’s mind right from the very first feeling.
Under the scheme for developing Phu Yen tourism to the year 2020, vision 2050, “Phu Yen will become the new gateway to the East and the CentralHighlands, striving to turn Phu Yen into one major tourism-service center. Phu Yen tourism will become one significant economic sector, clean industry bearing the particularly unique features”. This target is absolutely fundamental because right here in Phu Yen province, the nature gives favor when presenting numerous picturesque, breath-taking sights. The coastal line of 189km with white sandy beaches, golden sands, like the attractive appealing to tourists to come here and indulge themselves in the clean blue water. There are many lagoons, bays, cliffs and swimming places bearing the romantic and intact features, like Xuan Dai Bay, Da Dia Reef, O Loan Lagoon,…All will be the fantastic experiences, gained from the feelings of conquering, climbing up to Da Bia Mountain to grasp the clouds, the view from4 directions; turn to the Cape to enjoy the very first sunrise at the Eastern point of the Nation. There are also architectural, archeological and historical relics at national levels, like Nhan tower, Ho Citadel, An Tho Citadel, Vung Ro-No-number vessels, Tu Quang Pagoda…and the precious collection of tangible and intangible culture with the set of Tuy An stone bugles being recommended being recognized as the “National precious asset”.
Coming to Phu Yen, tourists can feel the aesthetic feature, the wonderful nature in a life-long history.
A FRIENDLY AND ATTRACTIVE DESTINATION
Possessing the “wealth” but still in the forms of “potentials”, Phu Yen is making every possible effort to construct and form tours, tourism products; connecting the enterprises to form the strongly and effervescently developing tourism market.
