NDO – The Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park in central Quang Binh province has recently been honoured with the title Most Attractive Tangible Heritage of 2015 by the Mekong Tourism Alliance.

The award is part of the Mekong Tourism Alliance Awards 2015, which include Best Airlines of the Year, Best Outbound Travel Operator of the Year, Best Inbound Travel Operator of the Year, Best 5 Star Hotel of the Year, Best Resort of the Year, and Most Attractive Tangible Heritage of the Year.

The MTAA is organised to celebrate and acknowledge the most outstanding tourism products in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam to instil a greater sense of pride and achievement for professionals and organisations and serve as recognition for quality of excellence in the tourism and hospitality industries in participating countries.

In July, Phong Nha-Ke Bang received its second UNESCO recognition. The first time it received the award was in 2003 for its geological and geomorphologic values.

Established in 2001, the Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park is considered among the 238 most important ecological zones in the world.

The Vietnam Records Organisation listed four tourism sites in Quang Binh amongst the top 50 must-see travel destinations in Vietnam, including Phong Nha Cave, Ngang Pass, Nhat Le Beach and Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park.

With the opening of Son Doong Cave in 2013, Quang Binh was instantly catapulted onto the bucket lists of travellers all over the world.
