Le Champ Tu Le Resort has contributed much to the positive changes in Yen Bai’s tourism sector.

The impressive natural scenery of the area in combination with the culture of Tu Le and Mu Cang Chai make it a top attraction for 2020.
The area’s potential has also been recognised by investors, with some beginning to tap into this emerging market with large luxury resorts.
Dao Xuan Thinh, general director of Thinh Dat JSC, the investor of Le Champ Tu Le Resort, said he was born and raised in Yen Bai. He has always felt a certain responsibility as a local man which made him consider developing his homeland. That is why he is determined to embark on this new field of tourism with the desire to introduce and promote the natural beauty and unique culture of Yen Bai to numerous tourists.
When the resort came into operation and began to receive positive support from travel businesses and visitors, Thinh and his company continued to finance another 5-star luxury resort project in Mu Cang Chai district, as well as an amusement park in Tu Le. In addition, the company also plans to organise cultural festivals and flower festivals to convey local culture and diversify tourism products to attract more tourists and other investors.
He added, “All of our projects represent core values for us to develop tourism in a sustainable manner. For me, Yen Bai tourism is like a sleeping beauty and we, the businesses, will join the government in awakening that potential.”
