Of this, tourist arrivals by air are over 1 million, a year-on-year rise of 40%. Foreign tourists mainly come from the Republic of Korea, China and Japan, via direct flights.

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Binh, Deputy Director of the Department of Tourism, said the large number of tourists visiting the coastal city during the period is thanks to the city hosting the international fireworks festival with an array of auxiliary programs such as photography contest, street festival, and international dance festival.

Thanks to the launch of additional international flights, during April 30th and May 1st  holidays, number of tourists to the city by air reached 27,450, up 77% over a year earlier./.
