Forming green agricultural tourism space around Ba Den Mountain (Tay Ninh)
Alongside the appeal of spiritual tourism at Ba Den
Mountain—a prominent destination in Tay Ninh province and southern Vietnam—the
area at the mountain’s foot has in recent years gradually developed a new
direction: agricultural tourism associated with green farm experiences. From
local orchards and farming models, sightseeing and experiential activities are
being formed and expanded, helping broaden the tourism space and diversify the
province’s tourism products. Photo: Minh Phu – VNA
