Of the total visitors in the reviewed time, 647,000 were foreign holidaymakers while domestic visitors accounted for 5.7 million, representing an increase of 1.4 percent and 5.7 percent against the same period of 2017, respectively .
With such growth, Ninh Binh earned 2.4 trillion VND (102 million USD) in revenue from tourism in the period, a rise of 18.9 percent compared to last year.
The achievements are attributed to the provincial tourism sector's efforts to strengthen management of tourism, promote tourism activities both at home and abroad, diversify tourist products, upgrade infrastructure, improve foreign language skills for its staff, and perfect service quality.
In the remaining three months, the tourism sector has set to welcome more 950,000 visitors, and earn 400 billion VND in turnover (17 million USD).
