Sapa is ready to start green tourism

Facing the policy of reopening tourism activities, the government, as well as businesses, service and tourism units in Sa Pa town, have planned and ready the conditions to welcome guests.

Topas Ecolodge Sa Pa Resort in Thanh Binh Commune is known by many domestic tourists. In the past, this resort usually only welcomed foreign tourists because of the high price and service style suitable for foreign tourists. However, when there were no foreign guests, this establishment quickly transformed its business model, adjusted prices, and offered preferential policies to welcome domestic customers. In addition to the times when social distancing is required, the establishment still has a steady stream of tourists.

The Daisy garden in Ta Phin commune attracts visitors

According to the tourism industry, Topas Ecolodge Sa Pa can still operate and welcome guests, because the resort is designed with separate bungalows, so groups of guests coming to stay and relax have separate conditions. separate, less contact. Disinfection, medical declaration, temperature check, and tourist information storage are also carried out, ensuring the requirements of disease prevention and control. The facility is assessed as safe by the tourism industry, eligible to participate in the green tourism launch plan, and restores the "smoke-free industry" industry under new normal conditions.

Not only Topas Ecolodge Sa Pa, but other service and tourism businesses in the area of Sa Pa town have also actively welcomed guests back. The initiative and anticipation of many establishments have initially been effective, attracting tourists. This can be seen through the "heat" of the chrysanthemum gardens attracting tourists to visit and experience in recent times. In order to have pure white chrysanthemum gardens from flower gardens in O Quy Ho area to Ta Phin and Lao Chai communes, gardeners must predict the market and sow seeds more than 3 months ago.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Trang, Chieng Ken commune (Van Ban district) said: When I was a student, I wanted to take a photo of daisies once in Hanoi, but due to busy studying, I missed many appointments. Thanks to the cultivation of gardeners in Ta Phin, I was able to satisfy my need to take pictures with daisies. Not only me, but many people have a satisfactory set of chrysanthemum pictures right in Sa Pa.

Mr. Nguyen Viet Tien, owner of chrysanthemum garden at team 1 Sa Xeng, Ta Phin commune said: Every day, the garden welcomes about 50 visitors to visit and take pictures with daisies. This is the first year the garden is open to visitors to take pictures. The chrysanthemums grown for about 100 days will bloom and visitors who want to take photos will only have the opportunity in 1 week.
