Since 2010, sunflowers have been growing in an area of nearly 100ha in Phu Quy Plateau (Nghia Dan, Nghe An). The sunflower field has become an attractive destination for tourists and is regarded as the biggest sunflower field in the country.
The 100ha field of sunflowers that stretches over several hills in Phu Quy Plateau is under the management of TH True Milk Company. At present, it is the biggest sunflower field in Vietnam. Normally sunflowers blossom twice a year, from April-May and November-December. The most beautiful blossom period falls late in the year, sometimes lasting until early January of the next year.
Sunflowers are grown in fields along the Ho Chi Minh Trail that passes Nghia Son commune, Nghia Dan district. There is a wide valley in the middle of the field and numerous 1m-wide pathways dividing the field into small rectangular areas.
These pathways are a great convenience for visitors who want to wander around, admire the flowers and take pictures.

In recent years, looking at sunflowers during blossoming season in Phu Quy has become a tourism product of Nghia Dan district in particular and Nghe An province in general.
The “Sunflower Festival” which took place from December 25-27 of 2016 held in Nghia Dan by the People’s Committee of Nghe An province attracted much attention from domestic and foreign tourists. According to the statistics of the organiser, the festival had attracted more than 150,000 visitors.
The sunflower festival is expected to become an opportunity for investors and generate new tourism products. Local firms hope the sunflower festival can help them draw the attention of flower lovers from other places to other diverse local attractions through connection with nearby craft villages, farms, and garden houses. This year sunflower season is a favourable opportunity for Phu Quy to introduce local specialties.
Nowadays, to meet the high demand for looking at sunflowers in western Nghe An, several domestic travel agencies have launched different types of tours to Nghia Dan. Local authorities in Nghe An have held different tourism activities for both domestic and foreign tourists to encourage foreign travel agencies to pick the sunflower field as their destination./.
