The 4th Hue Golden Tourism Week at heritage sites will take place from December 24-30 with a series of promotions, tour discounts and bonus services for tourists and travel agents.

The event will welcome the year's two millionth visitor to the site and the 30 millionth guest to Hue since it was recognized by UNESCO as a world heritage in 2003.

In addition, top 3 travel agents will be awarded and a conference on tourism services will be held. Tourists will also enjoy ticket exemption or discount when visiting heritage sites.

In January-November, Hue welcomed over 1.8 million visitors, including 846,000 foreigners, and earned over VND 129 billion in revenue, fullfilling the target one month ahead of the yearly plan.

Earlier, in September, 2013, Hue commemorated the 20th anniversary of its imperial relic complex recognised as a UNESCO world cultural heritage site, and 10 years of the Hue Royal Court music’s inclusion as an intangible cultural heritage of humankind.
