Night-time economy to be developed to help tourism recover
The night-time economy attracts tourists and creates specialties for localities, so the more diverse the economy is the more likely it will encourage tourists to stay longer and stimulate spending. Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Hoi An, Da Nang, Khanh Hoa, Thua Thien-Hue, and elsewhere will implement the “Developing the night-time economy” project, contributing to improving the efficiency of tourism businesses, extending average stays, and increasing visitor satisfaction.
