The 6th Quang Nam Heritage Festival to be held in early June will be an opportunity for the central province to solicit investment for tourism development.

Themed “Quang Nam - Connecting Cultural Heritage”, the festival is expected to help visitors get an insight into Quang Nam as a land with a variety of tangible and intangible heritages found in its plains, coast, islands and remote inland areas, Dinh Hai, director of  the province Department of Culture, Sport and Tourism, said.

The festival, which will be held in every locality across Quang Nam, will feature art performances and cultural exchange activities in Hoi An and My Son Sanctuary. 

Marine activities will be held with a view to giving visitors experience of the “heritage coastline”. 

Meanwhile, a new sea tour linking Chu Lai – Cu Lao Cham – Tam Hai (in Quang Nam Province) and Ly Son (in Quang Ngai Province) will be launched in May. 

The Quang Nam Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism has co-ordinated with localities to prepare traditional and cultural activities, while local authorities have asked owners of hotels and other accommodation to improve their service quality to meet the demands of visitors.

The province hopes to attract a million tourists to the festival.
