Chan May Port to welcome cruise ships back in November

On the morning of October 25th, the Department of Tourism, in collaboration with Chan May Port Joint Stock Company, held the inauguration ceremony for Visitor Information and Support Center at Chan May Port.

In a recent exchange highlighting the province's efforts to focus on infrastructure development, Mr. Phan Quy Phuong, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee, emphasized the goal of investing in infrastructure, particularly in ports, industrial zones, and customs-free zones, to serve production and business development.

This December 2023, the Regional Container Lines (RCL) from Thailand opened an international container shipping route to Chan May port. This shows not only the potential and advantages of the port but also a driving force and catalyst contributing to the development of the Chan May-Lang Co Economic Zone in particular and Thua Thien Hue province in general.

Cruise ship tourists are high-end ones. In addition to spending heavily in the places they visit, cruise ship tourists also contribute to spreading the appeal of the destination. The thing is, however, how to attract this type of tourist, the solution of which lies in investing in creating attractive products right from the “gateway” of Chan May Port, all the way to Hue City.

On January 16, Silver Spirit cruise ship docked at Chan May port for the first time in 2023, bringing nearly 200 tourists to visit and experience tourism in Hue Ancient Capital.
