Besides, there are some other tourism projects approved such as Truong Son – Song Bung ecotourism area, Fivitel Prao complex, Tay Ba Na high-class resort, and A Pang hot spring ecotourism site.
In addition, many community-based tourism sites are being built because community-based tourism is considered the key for tourism development in Dong Giang.
