| Hanoi is planning to build two tourism routes to explore the Nam Thang Long heritage road to develop tourism associated with heritage, relic sites and craft villages. |
The highlights of the first will be the villages of Ngau (Thanh Tri), Phuc Am (Thuong Tin), and Cuu (Phu Xuyen). Ngau is known far and wide for winemaking, Phuc Am is renowned for votive papers, and Cuu is famous for its ancient houses with European architecture.
Meanwhile, the second will include Noi Binh Da communal house (Thanh Oai) which is home to a national treasure -- a bas-relief of the nation's legendary ancestor Lac Long Quan, the Quang Phu Cau incense craft village (Ung Hoa), and the My Duc silk and lotus silk craft (My Duc).
The municipal Tourism Authority on December 26-27 organized fact-finding trips to the localities to develop the two routes soon.
