Let’s look at what Vietnamese think of Japan travel!
At the backdrop of recent development is an increase in out-of-country travel for Vietnamese. According to the statistics of the Japan National Tourism Organization (JNTO) there were 124,266 people from Vietnam who traveled to Japan in 2014. This has increased to 185,395 in 2015 and from January to October of 2016 it has already reached 202,600. From this it is obvious that Vietnamese are looking more and more at Japan as their top overseas travel destination. Now let’s take a look at a research※ done on what Vietnamese think of traveling and what they expect to experience in Japan.SURVEY PERIOD: OCTOBER 27, 2016 – NOVEMBER 27, 2016

Many Vietnamese are interested in Hokkaido and Tohoku!
From the survey results we can see that many Vietnamese would like to visit Tokyo as well as Hokkaido and Tohoku areas. Hokkaido and Tohoku both showcase spectacular beauty of nature and snow sceneries that you cannot find in the cities. Since only the northern part of Vietnam experiences some snow Vietnamese surely long for white and snowy places. This is maybe one of the reasons why they are interested to visit Hokkaido or Tohoku. Also a documentary program called “The Colors of Japan” which was co-produced by Japanese television station TBS and VTV of Vietnam was broadcasted in Vietnam. Seven tourist areas in Japan and their famous products were featured and these places are from Aomori, Niigata, Kagoshima, Yamagata, Nagano, Toyama and Oita prefectures. Thanks to this program local areas in Japan were seen and would have caught attention of Vietnamese viewers and potential future tourists. In the future, along with further economic development, Vietnamese tourists traveling abroad to Japan are expected to increase. “Very delicious Japanese food” and “beautiful Japanese landscapes” are the things that Vietnamese people expect and would go for when traveling to Japan and apart from Tokyo there are many other places where you can have unique things and wonderful sights for you to experience in your travel. For Japan, it is now the time to level up efforts in showcasing more to Vietnamese what delightful and unforgettable experience they can have when they travel to the land of the rising sun.The detailed report which this article referred to is available.
