Places - Travelling Articles Articles - COTHIVALE ARTICLES1: Pressure on My Son Holy Land
Besides the increasing of visitors, the pressure on this heritage is also on the rise. Keeping balance between tourism development and preservation is a big problem for My Son authorities. The number of tourists to My Son has soared, from only 27,104 visitors in 1999, the year My Son was recognized as a world heritage, to 209,032 in 2011. Revenue from entrance tickets last year was nearly VND11 billion ($500,000). At present, the relic welcomes 500-700 visitors a day on average, which rises to 1,200-1,500 at weekend. The more tourists come to sites, the more services are required. In Hoi An ancient town, the number of visitors is regular during the day and in a wide space but in My Son, 9-11am are the peak hours. During this time, a large number of visitors hustle in a narrow space of several hundreds of meters in diameter. The overload is seen in the shortage of guides and transport services during the peak hours. Nguyen Cong Huong, head of the My Son Relic Preservation Board said that the board has six cars to take visitors into the relic and 12 guides. All of the vehicles and guides work at full capacity during the peak hours but they could not satisfy visitors. However, the board cannot increase the number of cars and guides because most of visitors come to the site on the morning, Huong said. Conservation experts advice the board to not permit big cars to get into the relics, but as the number of tourists is very high during peaking hours, the advice is neglected. Huong said that the management board would ask travel firms to not take tourists to the relic only on the morning to avoid overload. The board will take measures to reduce the pressure by welcoming visitors who enjoy free entrance in the afternoon, cutting down ticket price for visitors in the afternoon, etc. My Son is a cluster of abandoned and partially ruined Hindu temples constructed between the 4th and the 14th century AD by the kings of Champa. The temples are dedicated to the worship of the god Shiva, known under various local names, the most important of which is "Bhadresvara." The relic is around 70km southwest of Da Nang city. The temples are in a valley roughly two kilometers wide that is surrounded by two mountain ranges. From the 4th to the 14th century AD, the valley at My Son was a site of religious ceremony for kings of the ruling dynasties of Champa, as well as a burial place for Cham royalty and national heroes. It was closely associated with the nearby Cham cities of Indrapura and Simhapura. At one time, the site encompassed over 70 temples as well as numerous stele bearing historically important inscriptions in Sanskrit and Cham. The My Son temple complex is regarded one of the foremost Hindu temple complexes in Southeast Asia and is the foremost heritage site of this nature in Vietnam. It is often compared with other historical temple complexes in Southeast Asia, such as Borobudur of Java in Indonesia, Angkor Wat of Cambodia, Bagan of Myanmar and Ayutthaya of Thailand. As of 1999, My Son has been recognized by UNESCO as a world heritage site. At its 23rd meeting, UNESCO accorded My Son this recognition pursuant to its criterion C (II), as an example of evolution and change in culture, and pursuant to its criterion C (III), as evidence of an Asian civilization which is now extinct. 2: Spend Your 2012 Summer Vacation in Alaska Seeing Americas northern state for the first time is a tremendous travel experience.

4: In Lanta Tour Sase, Vietnam Wins International Travelers Hearts 'The model of settling tourism crisis' This is the comment of Nguyen Anh Tuan, Deputy Director of the Travel Department under the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism VNAT about the support to the 300 Russian travelers who got stuck in Binh Thuan province since Russian Lanta Tour got bankrupted. Tuan himself flew to Binh Thuan on January 31, to cooperate with the Binh Thuan local authorities to settle the problem as the representative of the state management agency. Nearly 100 travelers have safely returned to Russia over the past few days thanks to the laudable efforts of the authorities and enterprises in Binh Thuan province. This is an encouraging result if noting that thousands of Russian travelers are still getting stuck in Thailand, India, Italia and Mexico. Director of Lanta Tour Thai in Bangkok has been arrested by the police, and the office of the travel firm has been demolished. Meanwhile, Lanta Vietnam in Phan Thiet remains safe and sound. Tuan said he himself got surprised about the quick reaction of the local authorities. The Binh Thuan provincial people's committee, the provincial Department for Sports and Tourism and the provincial tourism association have been cooperating closely with each other to find the most reasonable solutions. Especially, the local resorts have been serving the Russian travelers well despite the information about the bankruptcy of Lanta Tour. At Romana, Hoang Ngoc, Seahorse, Rock Water Bay resorts, travelers have been told that they can feel secure to stay here until the tour finishing day. Some reports have paid a special attention to the unlucky travelers, sending letters to everyone to reassure them and support them to use the services of the resort. As for the travelers who decide to return to Russia, the resorts have carried them free of charge to HCM City. 'I had a dinner with the Russian General Consulate in HCM City and the representatives of Binh Thuan local authorities last night. He was very grateful and expressed his satisfaction with the active support and enthusiasm of local authorities and the professional behaviors of the resorts,' Tuan said. The General Consulate also said that among the countries affected by the Lanta Tour trouble, Russian travelers have got the best support in Vietnam. This can be considered a 'model' in settling tourism crisis. The opportunity to advertise Vietnam's tourism The images about a country and its people can be seen most clearly in the way how it settles the troubles. Two or three years ago, the professionalism of Thai tourism was praised, when Thai demonstrators explained to international tourists who got stuck at the airports about their behaviors, and provided meals and water free to tourists. However, in the Lanta Tour case, Russian travelers in Thailand were told that they may be arrested because they don't have money to pay to hotels, while thousands of people are still waiting at the airports. Russia is a big market for Binh Thuan which welcomes 120,000 Russian travelers every year. Therefore, Binh Thuan local authorities well understand that it is necessary to 'take care' for the special market. Tuan emphasized that the support travelers can receive in difficulties would be the best advertisement about Vietnam's tourism. A lot of Russian travelers have said they want to stay in Binh Thuan longer and have affirmed that they would return to Vietnam. Nguyen Van Khoa, General Director of Ben Thanh Mui Ne travel firm, said that three lessons have been drawn from the case. First, the Vietnamese partners need to keep close watch over the debts. Second, in case of troubles, it's necessary to have the measures to reassure travelers timely. Third, it's necessary to have the support from the State. 5: Vietnam - TRAVEL IN BRIEF 3/2 Italian cruise ship brings thousands Saigontourist Travel Service Co welcomed some 2,500 passengers and crew members who arrived in Ha Long Bay aboard the cruise ship Costa Classica on Wednesday.
