Thieng Lieng Island is the first typical community tourism destination in Ho Chi Minh City, where the model "One house one product" operates in a closed circle in a rhythmic and logical manner, creating a unique mark of community tourism such as: Refreshing with cool syrup and aloe vera (Mui Gia household), Relaxing foot bath (Nam Tuyet household), Family kitchen (Mui Bung household), Discovering nostalgic space (Ut Hai household).... This is a model that the Survey Team assessed as suitable for learning and applying to community tourism development in Hau Giang. Hopefully, through the survey trip, it will create conditions for civil servants, public employees, and tourism businesses to learn experience in management, tourism product development, and tourism promotion to contribute to the development of community tourism in the province.
