Vietnam’s central province of Nghe An is seeking US$250 million for 22 eco-tourism projects from now to 2015, the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism said May 19.
The projects include an eco-tourist area at Khe Kem Waterfall worth US$63 million, a tourist site at Quyet Mountain-Ben Thuy valued at US$25 million, US$10 million Sao Va Waterfall and US$6 million Nghi Thiet Beach.
To tap tourism potentials, the local authorities have called upon investors to get involved in sea, convalescence and eco-tourism in Quynh Luu, Cua Lo, Nghi Loc, Con Cuong and Nam Dan districts.
