The most attracting destination for tourists is Quang Trung Museum in Tay Son District. The cluster of Champa architecture including Banh It (Silver) towers, Duong Long towers, Doi (twin) towers, and Canh Tien towers ranks the second. Some traditional trade villages in An Nhon District and old battlefields in Districts of Hoai An, Hoai Nhon, and Binh Dinh also have their own advantages of sea ecotourism, but not many tourists are attracted owing to their infrastructure and services.
At present, Hai Au travel agency has many tours for visitors to Binh Dinh, such as "Binh Dinh-land of martial arts" tour, and "Quy Nhon-Cham towers-Quang Trung Museum-Ham Ho" tour in which tourists are able to not only enjoy Tay Son marital arts and Quang Trung wardrum performance but sport events like swimming, tug-of-war, or trekking. Also, other tours have been improved with many new features.
Quy Nhon Travel Co., Ltd (Q.Travel) made the effort to provide small tours for families or small groups of tourists. The destinations of these tours depend on tourists' requirements.
In this type of tours, visitors could choose locations meanwhile the schedule was still arranged. Most of them enjoyed visiting apricot gardens in An Nhon District. We were studying traditional trade villages in Binh Dinh to diversify types of tour, according to Nguyen Huu Trong, director of Q.Travel.
To attract more tourists to Binh Dinh, contributing to the development of Binh Dinh tourism, provincial functional bodies and travel agencies not only intensify the tourism promotion but add more activities to all kinds of tour. A travel enterprise is by now planning the Quy Nhon-Tuy Phuoc tour in which tourists will visit Dao Tan place of worship, Xuan Dieu commemoration house, and Cat Tien beach.
Alongside these, if there are more tour guides having good knowledge of cultural and historical sites in Binh Dinh, the promotion of Binh Dinh tourism will be more effective.
