The Department of Tourism is now separate from the Department ofCulture, Sports and Tourism and headquartered at No. 17 Dien Bien Phustreet in Ba Dinh district.
It is tasked with preserving, tapping and developing local tourism resources, the environment and places of interest.
Another mission is to grant, amend, extend and revoke licences toestablish foreign travel company representative offices whileclassifying hotels and tourism villages based in Hanoi.
Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Nguyen The Thao said thedepartment will improve the State’s management of tourism while boostingthe development of tourism products and promotion activities, helpingto effectively tap the capital city’s tourism resources and turn thesector into a spearhead industry for Hanoi.
As a tourism magnet in northern Vietnam, Hanoi sees an annual touristvolume growth rate of over 10 percent and attracts 40 percent of thetotal visitors to Vietnam. It has also been the venue for a number ofdomestic and international tourism events.
However, local tourism activities are believed to fall short of Hanoi’s potential and advantages.
Last October, Ho Chi Minh City set up its Department of Tourism,previously part of the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
In early 2015, Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung also approved thefoundation of a similar tourism agency in the central city of DaNang.
