The participating villages are located in six northern mountainous provinces including Ha Giang, Thai Nguyen, Cao Bang, Bac Kan, Lang Son, and Tuyen Quang.
Visitors to the festival were introduced to typical tourist destinations, products and services, provided by the community-based culture and tourism villages.
Arts performances and displays of traditional costumes of ethnic groups in the northern province were also staged within the framework of the festival.
The festival aims to preserve and promote the traditional cultural values of ethnic groups, encourage exchanges between ethnic groups, and improve professional skills for those working in community-based tourism.
It also helps to further strengthen tourism connectivity and cooperation between provinces in the Viet Bac region, thus developing tourism as a spearhead economic industry throughout the region.
