Impressive images of Vietnam’s diverse landscape will be shown to global audiences to stimulate interest and a desire to experience Vietnam firsthand.
Nguyen Chau A, CEO of Oxalis Adventure, which is coordinating with the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism, said European and American tourists often look for destinations unlike those in their home country.
“Vietnam will be attractive to Western tourists looking for nature tourism and cultural tourism, which they are particularly interested in," Chau A noted.
