Gò Cỏ Village Heritage Park
Two rural tourism destinations in Quảng Ngãi Province have been selected for public voting in the 2026 Việt Nam Best Rural Tourism Destination Awards, offering an opportunity to showcase the province’s natural landscapes, cultural heritage and community-based tourism potential.
The competition, organised by the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment in coordination with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, aims to honour outstanding rural tourism destinations that preserve local identities, engage communities and promote sustainable development.
A total of 35 eligible destinations nationwide have been shortlisted following an evaluation of their applications.
Quảng Ngãi is represented by two destinations: Sơn Tây Thượng Rural Tourism Destination in Sơn Tây Thượng Commune, and Gò Cỏ Village Heritage Park, managed by the Gò Cỏ Village Community Coordination Cooperative in Sa Huỳnh Ward.
The competition highlights destinations offering distinctive rural tourism products and services associated with natural landscapes, ecological agriculture, traditional craft villages, community culture, indigenous knowledge, OCOP products and local specialities.
Public voting opened on November 7 and is being conducted through three platforms: Facebook, TikTok and the competition’s online voting website. Each valid Like, Heart or online vote is counted as one point.
Both Vietnamese and international participants can cast their votes through the available platforms, contributing to the promotion of Việt Nam’s rural tourism destinations to domestic and international visitors.
The selection of the two destinations provides an opportunity for Quảng Ngãi to further promote its distinctive cultural values, rural landscapes and community-based tourism products, while encouraging sustainable tourism development and creating new opportunities for local communities.
