Domestic and international tourists can take part in a vote on mass media for the top-ten lists of tourist products, namely 10 Vietnamese impression-imbued hotels, 10 Vietnamese restaurants, 10 most favorite specialties, 10 most interesting shopping malls, 10 most typical tourist attractions, 10 cultural, sport and tourist events, 10 most favorite by-night entertainment sites, 10 Vietnamese dishes, 10 most special city-tour programs, and 10 best healthcare centers.

Hồ Chí Minh City’s 100 best tourist products will be advertised on mass media, in tourist conferences and fairs, at Vietnamese embassies in other countries and foreign embassies in Việt Nam, and through domestic and foreign travel agencies.

The program is expected to help encourage tourist enterprises to better their products and service, improve competitiveness, create more comparative advantages and attract more tourists to Hồ Chí Minh City.
