Danang’s Nguyen Hien Dinh Tuong classical drama theatre and the
Saigontourist travel agency put on a special show to welcome foreign cruise ship
passengers.
36 visitors from the SuperStar Aquarius operated by Star Cruises, Malaysia were
taken to the Nguyen Hien Dinh theatre on 25 November. The charming Quang Tuong
excerpts, the fascinating Apsara dances and a monochord solo left deep
impressions.
The return of this cruise ship after a two-year absence is a positive sign for
Da Nang’s tourism sector. 18 cruise ships visited Viet Nam in December. It is
expected that about 190,000 cruising tourists monthly in the first three months
of 2012 will visit Ha Long Bay, Da Nang, Hoi An, and Hue. Mainly from from
China, Hong Kong, Japan and Korea they will stay at each place from 1 to 4 days
and will join tours to learn about Viet Nam’s cultural history and the daily
life and special foods of the local people.
Da Nang has to continue finding products like the Tuong theatre performance to
enrich its cultural attractions.
