(VOV) - Vietnam’s leading travel agents met with more than 150 Sri Lankan partners in Colombo on Friday to exploit growing interest in Vietnamese tourism.  Vietnam’s ambassador to Sri Lanka, Ton Sinh Thanh, said the event aims to help local travel agents gain a better understanding of Vietnam’s people, land, history, culture, landscape and cuisine. He said this is a good chance for Vietnam to promote tourism and to meet with partners to explore the potential tourism market in Sri Lanka. The ambassador expressed his hope that the meeting along with a ten-day Farm Trip for 15 Sri Lankan tourism and media representatives in August will further promote tourism cooperation between the two countries.
