The numbers of tourists increased from most markets, particularly South Korea, Finland, China, and Denmark. Vietnam aims to attract at least 15 million foreign arrivals this year. The fourth quarter is a peak season for foreign tourists, so if the current growth rate is sustained, the goal will be met. The VNAT has coordinated with some agencies to launch a smart tourism portal at www.dulich.vtv.vn so as to provide comprehensive information about Vietnam’s tourism and help users gain better travel experiences.
