The northern province of Dien Bien has set its sights on welcoming at least 400,000 visitors in 2014, including 70,000 international tourists.
The province is banking on festivities marking the 60th anniversary of the Dien Bien Phu Victory over French colonialists to attract record numbers of visitors this year.

Along this vein, the provincial department of culture, sports and tourism has refurbished Dien Bien Phu historic relics and upgraded a number of cultural and entertainment sites in preparation for the celebrations.

The province has also recently completed the construction of a museum dedicated to telling the incredible story of the victorious Battle of Dien Bien Phu.

“Around 2,000 documents and artifacts on the Dien Bien Phu victory will be displayed at the museum” says Ms Vu Thi Tuyen Nga, deputy director of the museum.

More than 40 guides providing destination information along with travel tips, hotel and restaurant guides have been published to introduce visitors to the province.
