Da Nang city has also experienced remarkable growth in tourism since the beginning of the year. The estimated number of overnight visitors has reached 4.6 million, with tourism revenue estimated at 13 trillion VND, up 24% over the same period last year. The city continues to strengthen promotional activities, host major events, and expand international flight routes, thereby reinforcing its position as a leading destination in the Central – Central Highlands region.

During the conference, representatives from travel companies and tourism businesses from both localities introduced tourist destinations, preferential policies, and promotional programmes designed to attract tourists from both sides. They also discussed cooperative solutions, proposed mechanisms for tourism development partnerships, addressed challenges, and recommended the development of suitable tourism routes between Son La and Da Nang in the near future.
