Moc Chau aims to become a national tourism site by 2025

Around 200 km from Hanoi Capital, Moc Chau boasts ideal geological conditions, resulting in cool weather and a diverse ecosystem throughout the year, making it a prime destination for relaxing vacations.

Expanding over 206,000 hectares in Moc Chau and Van Ho districts of Son La province, the Moc Chau tourism complex welcomed approximately 1.5 million tourists in 2023, a significant rebound from the earlier pandemic years. The region has since recovered, showcasing its appeal to both domestic and international visitors.

In recent years, the Vietnamese government has continued to develop the area, with plans to enhance eco-tourism offerings, including a theme park and resort integrated into the core of the Moc Chau national tourism site. Efforts to achieve national site recognition by 2025 are underway, with tourism managers actively promoting the area's attractions to both domestic and international tourists.
