The Xu Doai or Xoai region including the seven districts and cities of Ba Vi, Son Tay, Phuc Tho, Dan Phuong, Hoai Duc, Thach That, and Quoc Oai, is located west of Hanoi. The region is considered the cradle of early Vietnamese culture.

The Xu Doai Tourism Festival is a venue to showcase regional specialties from the One Commune One Product (OCOP) program and other tourism-related products, according to Deputy Director of the Hanoi Tourism Department Nguyen Hong Minh. “Gastronomy is the strength of Hanoi tourism, especially the unique cuisine of Xu Doai,” he said.

“This first-ever tourism festival on Xu Doai cuisine will help promote Hanoi’s cuisine and the image of Xu Doai as a rich cultural land to visitors at home and abroad,” he added.

The event will feature booths selling handicrafts, stalls showcasing local products, and a culinary demonstration area showcasing the skills of local chefs. There will be some kiosks from regional tourist destinations and travel agents.

Visitors to the festival will have the opportunity to participate in folk games, entertainment events, and other fascinating travel experiences, in addition to trying the famous dishes of Xu Doai.
