Mr.Dang Le Hoang in Coc Le Ward (Lao Cai City) shared: Since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, long-distance trips have not been possible, instead, I often organize tours in the suburban area of ​​the city. My friends and I camped overnight on Nhac Son hill (Kim Tan ward). This place has empty, flat land, very suitable for camping, organizing outdoor parties, looking down at night from above, the city shimmers beautifully.

In addition to the bustling downtown area, just moving about 2 - 5 km, it will not be difficult to find interesting places to experience. Recently, a number of eco-tourism models have been known by many people and tourists in the suburbs of the city, such as Xuan Dien homestay (Hop Thanh), Sunshine eco-resort (Xuan Tang)…

In Cam Duong commune, a number of models have also been formed to convert inefficient rice cultivation areas to aquaculture combined with culinary services. In the commune, there are 6 economic models associated with culinary services, including the model of Mr. Tran Quoc Doan's family in Vach village. Previously, he planted rice, grew vegetables and crops, but the economic efficiency was not high, he decided to switch to digging ponds to raise fish in combination with fishing and culinary services. The economic development in this direction helps his family have a stable income.

It is known that the People's Committee of Lao Cai city has developed the draft project to restore, embellish and promote the value of the historical relic of the Cam Duong revolutionary base in association with tourism development in Lao Cai city in the period of 2021-2025. Communes such as Cam Duong, Hop Thanh and Ta Phoi with natural advantages and attractive natural landscapes are assessed as having potential for developing experience tourism, including Phin Ho Thau village (Ta Phoi commune). . Recently, Phin Ho Thau village has been interested by many tourism business units and organized survey trips to assess tourism potential. This place has a fresh climate with cool water, forming many natural waterfalls, suitable for picnics and resorts. In Phin Ho Thau, people still keep the primeval forest with hundreds of years old trees, which can develop eco-tourism and community-based tourism. The City Information and Culture Department plans to organize a Phin Ho Thau bicycle race, contributing to promoting the beauty and tourism potential of this land.

With the goal of building "Lao Cai city, a green - safe tourist destination", the Culture - Information Department of the City has developed a plan to introduce the city's potential for tourism development; selection of outstanding tourist attractions of the city and community-based tourist attractions, homestays, eco-tourism sites, agricultural tourism. The city will also select a number of model villages in Hop Thanh commune to build community tourism villages, thereby replicating potential and suitable localities for this type of tourism.…

Ms. Vu Thi Thuy Dung, Deputy Manager of Culture - Information Department of Lao Cai city said that: In addition to the well-known types of tourism, Lao Cai city has surveyed and researched to supplement the new type of tourism. The city has developed a draft plan to organize sports tournaments, mountain climbing, cultural and artistic activities combined with food contests to promote the beauty of people and the land of Lao Cai city to tourists.
