Green tourism opens new development pathway for northernmost frontier

Lung Cu commune in Tuyen Quang province has chosen tourism as its leading economic sector, not only capitalising on local strengths but also as a natural path to create jobs, support sustainable poverty reduction, and enhance living standards in Vietnam’s northernmost region. Covering 95.2 square kilometres and comprising 37 villages with a population of over 15,000, Lung Cu is a border commune of strategic importance. It boasts distinctive tourism assets, including the Lung Cu National Flag Tower, the northernmost point of Vietnam, and a rich cultural space shaped by highland ethnic communities. Despite a low economic starting point, underdeveloped infrastructure and fragmented agricultural production, the commune has identified tourism as a breakthrough pathway to accelerate economic restructuring and achieve sustainable poverty reduction.
