In October, Hanoi was crowned the World’s Best Golf City Destination 2023 at the 10th World Golf Awards, surpassing famous cities like Paris and New York in terms of golf tourism.

In addition, Hanoi ranked 17th among 25 renowned travel destinations and third among the top 20 culinary destinations for food enthusiasts, as voted by travelers on TripAdvisor.

Dang Huong Giang, Director of the city’s Department of Tourism, attributed this success to the collective efforts of the entire system, including authorities, businesses, and locals.

The highlight of Hanoi’s tourism achievements this year is the successful implementation of digital transformation and technology in tourism management, as well as the development of new tourism products. For example, Hanoi has established a database software for the entire tourism industry at www.dulich.myhanoi.vn, digitized the data system for agricultural and rural tourism, and created a multilingual digital tourism map of Hanoi.

Vietnam defeat Myanmar, set up ASEAN football semifinal against Indonesia

Hình ảnh
Before the game started, both teams spent a moment of silence in memory of Brazilian football legend Pele, who passed away last week. Vietnam looked poised for the last four with an early goal just eight minutes into the game. Nguyen Van Quyet conjured up a brilliant assist for Pham Tuan Hai to tap in, but before Hai could touch the ball, Zin Lwin scored an own goal. Vietnam’s goalkeeper Dang Van Lam and defense line almost brought the match back to the start by making grave mistakes in just a few minutes with wrong positioning and careless passes. However, the Myanmar players failed to convert those chances. The hosts doubled the lead in the 27th minute when Myanmar keeper Tun Nanda Oo could not catch the ball cleanly from Doan Van Hau’s cross, leaving Nguyen Tien Linh with an easy job.
