Chinese tourists spurring Vietnam's economy
The five-star Muong Thanh Luxury Nha Trang Hotel in central Vietnam is one of many hotspots for increasing numbers of Chinese tourists who enjoy the hotel's buffet or buying local specialities, including agarwood products and handmade jewelry inlaid with natural pearls.
In the dining hall of the 48-storey hotel in Nha Trang City, Khanh Hoa province, most diners sit in groups and speak Chinese enthusiastically. Among them, on Sunday, two elderly couples, two middle-aged couples and a teenaged girl were sitting around a table, enjoying seafood.
"All my family members, including my parents, my wife, my daughter and I like seafood very much. The food here is delicious," the middle-aged man, Zhang Deyi, from the central Chinese province of Henan, said.
