Turning Sam Son town to sea tourism urban - Sam Son travel

Thanh Hoa northern province is now striving to build Sam Son town into a developed sea tourism town from now by the year 2010.

Since the early years of the 20th century when the town was first planned as a sea resort, there have been now 400 hotels, guests’ houses with 6,000 rooms, with a capacity of 20,000 visitors per day. Each year, the town receives around 1.2 to 1.3 million of visitors.

In the coming time, when the Nghi Son economic zone is operational, more people, including foreigners will come to the town for conference, seminars, tourism and also sea bathing. Therefore, the town’s administration is now striving to rearrange the service system, strengthen management and shift economic structure. Since 1996, hundreds of billions of Vietnamese dong has been invested to build hotels and improve transportation, water and electric system.

To reach the target to build Sam Son into a sea urban area, the locality’s administration is now carrying out the urbanisation plan with areas reserved for administration centre, trade and service centre and entertainment centre.

Under the plan, a big supermarket will be built to meet the tourists consume demands. Culinary centres will also be built in the town’s centre as well as in the Quang Cu ecological tourism area.

Recently, the town has invested VND 10 billion to improve streets and lanes to the sea. The town also calls for more investment in building entertainment area, Ho Xuan Huong walking street and park.

Apart from planning and infrastructure, Sam Son is now building a friendly and civilised lifestyle in tourism activities. Training is also provided to hotels’ staff so that they can improve their tourism skill to better serve customers.

With those efforts, Sam Son sees positive changes and contributes to the tourism development.
