Regional connectivity advantage transforms Ba Ria-Vung Tau into tourism hotspot
With a convenient location in the southern key economic region and only one hour and 30 minutes away from Ho Chi Minh City, Ba Ria-Vung Tau has much potential in its tourism development.
Ba Ria-Vung Tau is the gateway province reaching out to the sea of the southern key economic region with the Cai Mep-Thi Vai deep-water seaport system which was planned as a special national and international transhipment port.
Over the years, Ba Ria-Vung Tau focused on planning and investing in infrastructure and is now ready to link up with the whole region to develop its economy. Many important seaports, highways, and airports are a driving force helping Ba Ria-Vung Tau develop its economy.
Currently, the province is building a national and international logistics and supply centre at Cai Mep Ha to create a synchronous and continuous connection between the Cai Mep-Thi Vai seaport, the Long Thanh International airport, and major industrial hubs in Ho Chi Minh City, Binh Duong, and Dong Nai.
As the leading locality in the country in terms of intra-provincial traffic development, the transport system of Ba Ria-Vung Tau is ready to connect to national traffic projects such as the Bien Hoa highway to Vung Tau, the Ben Luc-Long Thanh and Ho Chi Minh City-Long Thanh-Dau Giay expressways, and the upcoming Long Thanh International Airport.
It is expected that, when Long Thanh International Airport is completed and put into operation, Ba Ria-Vung Tau will become a global tourist destination.
