Scheduled to begin at the upcoming Southern Liberation and National Reunification holiday (April 30), the programme will seek to create new distinctive tourism products so as to enhance the experience of tourists to the city.

Quang Binh Province experiences the dry season from April to August, which is an ideal time to explore the Phong Nha – Ke Bang National Park and Ozo Treetop Park in particular. Covering a total area of nearly five hectares around imposing lime mountains, Ozo Park is the first park in Vietnam to be located inside a primitive forest. Visitors to the park can not only breathe in pure natural atmosphere but also participate in various adventurous games. They can walk on wooden bridges suspended among the trees, with the total length of the walkways being nearly 1km. The jade Ozo stream flows under the bridges like a soft silk strip, where many water activities take place, such as kayaking, stand up paddleboarding (SUP), and rowing. Thrill seekers to the park will be treated with the zip lines and tightrope walks. They can also bicycle into the dense forest or take a trip to explore the magnificent beauty of stalactites inside the 2.5km-long Ozo Cave. After a long day with full activities, visitors can enjoy relaxing and a tingling ‘fish massage' therapy on the edge of the water. …

The centre's founders wish to organise many useful and practical promotional activities to help the public understand and appreciate the value of national costumes, thereby promoting the movement of wearing the traditional ao dai ngu than during holidays, such as at Tet (Lunar New Year) Festival, and also at festivals; improving the applicability of traditional costumes in contemporary life bit by bit. Specifically, in 2020, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism selected seven traditional festivals of ethnic minorities for restoration and preservation, including traditional festivals of the Lao ethnic minority people in Dien Bien province, the La Chi ethnic group (Quang Binh district, Ha Giang province), the Nung ethnic group (Hoang Su Phi district, Ha Giang province), the Thai ethnic group (Yen Bai province); Binh Phuoc province; the Si La ethnic group (Lai Chau province), and the Gia Rai ethnic group (Kon Tum province).
