Lao Cai international tourism market: The attraction of the largest Vietnam-China border market in Vietnam |
1km from the international border gate and located in the busiest center of Lao Cai city, Lao Cai International tourism market is considered a "super product" for investment, rental and business at the present time.
Lao Cai International tourism market is the largest market in Lao Cai province with an area of 1.1 hectares divided into 2 parts: the outside of the market is surrounded by 66 commercial kiosks built on the street, 3 - 3.5 floors high; the core of the market is arranged with 3 floors above ground and 1 basement with more than 1,000 stalls, with a variety of goods and services.
On the morning of September 9, in Lao Cai, the signing ceremony of cooperation on tourism development and international trade took place at Lao Cai Border Gate with the participation of representatives of Yunnan Province Human Resources Industry Association.
Lao Cai international tourism market is also located on the famous cultural and spiritual tourism route connecting Lao Cai station to Mau Temple, Thuong Temple, Lao Cai international border gate, and is also a transit point for tourists to Sa Pa, Bac Ha, Ong Hoang Bay Temple and other famous places of Lao Cai...
Thanks to that, the market has become an “unmissable stop” for any tourist coming to Lao Cai, expected to welcome tens of millions of tourists every year, including a large number of international visitors through the border gate.
Lao Cai International tourism market is located at the center of international trade when it is adjacent to Lao Cai international border gate and is located on the economic corridor of Kunming - Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh.
This is a border economic zone, a trade bridge between Vietnam and China, which receives special attention from the two countries' governments, promoting comprehensive development in tourism, trade and import and export.
Sharing about the development orientation of Lao Cai International tourist market, Ms. Kaori Pham - President of Big Global Japan Group said: "When commercial activities are bustling, the kiosks are gradually filled, we will combine more cultural and artistic activities every weekend, turning the space of Lao Cai international tourist market into a tourist attraction.
Coming to Lao Cai, tourists cannot miss the massive 4-frontage market located in the city center, which is Lao Cai International tourist market. The modern, bright market is a highlight that adds to the bustling and civilized look of Lao Cai city, which is transforming into a smart city in the northern border of the Fatherland".
Every year, many major events such as the Vietnam-China International Trade Fair, Kunming International Tourism Fair, etc. are jointly organized by the two countries to introduce and promote products and promote multi-industry and multi-professional cooperation.
Vietnamese and Southeast Asian distributors who need to import quality Chinese goods will no longer have to go through intermediaries but can directly negotiate and place orders right in Lao Cai city.
As a key project in the cooperative relationship between Lao Cai and Hekou (China), Lao Cai tourist market has now "opened its doors" to Chinese traders to do business with the expectation of bringing the "big factory" across the border to Vietnam, becoming a trading and transit point for goods of the two countries' traders.
Lao Cai international tourism market is a commercial and service complex on the 2nd floor, providing top-notch entertainment moments at high-class commercial booths, modern entertainment areas, luxurious restaurants and full of Northwest flavors. Lao Cai's tourism economic development strategy to 2030 and vision to 2050 identifies tourism as a key economic sector of the locality. This place will become the leading "green" and "smart" natural tourism and adventure sports destination in Vietnam. In the near future, when Sapa Airport and the railway connecting Lao Cai Station to Ha Khau Bac Station are built, combined with the Hanoi - Lao Cai expressway that has been put into use, Lao Cai tourism market will become the focal point connecting tourism activities and transiting goods between Vietnam-China and ASEAN countries. |
