PSH Group from Spain has received approval in principle from the People’s Committee of Thua Thien-Hue to develop the Hue Amusement and Beach Park at Vinh Thanh and Vinh An communes, Phu Vang Distrct.

The 49.5ha project, worth VND1.06-trillion (US$46.7 million), will comprise 1,000 four-star and five-star hotel rooms, 93 villas and various other facilities, a committee source told baodautu.vn.

The construction is slated to kick off in the second quarter of 2017 and finish two years later, the provincial Department of Planning and Investment said, adding that the project will make the city more attractive to tourists by providing a wide range of entertainment options.

The central province welcomed 3.25 million tourists in 2016, including over 1 million foreigners, up 4 per cent year-on-year. — VNS
