Over 3,700 boats operated by the Huong Son Tourism Co-operative have been refurbished and painted green for the festival. Each boat operator is assigned a unique QR code for easy management, and every boat features a QR code for visitors to provide feedback on the service. These boats run daily from 4.30 to 8 pm.
My Duc District has concentrated on improving the landscape and environment along Road 419 near Huong Pagoda and the pedestrian paths alongside Yen Stream.
Starting January 1 this year, the integrated ticket for the Huong Tich route, which covers admission and boat transportation, is VND230,000 for adults and VND65,000 for children.
The round-trip fare for the cable car service from Thien Tru Pagoda to Huong Tich Cave is VND260,000 for adults and VND180,000 for children and priority groups. Additionally, the electric car transport fare from the parking lot to the boat dock is VND20,000 per person per trip.
Local authorities will ramp up inspections to promptly address the sale of inappropriate or offensive items and the use of loudspeakers for solicitation.
