Today, alongside the rapid development of digital technology, exploring Xu Lang is becoming a more modern, convenient, and enriching experience through the Lang Son Smart Tourism Information Portal and the Lang Son Tourism mobile application.

Officially launched on December 15, 2022, under the direction of the Lang Son Provincial People's Committee and with the collaboration of relevant agencies and Lang Son Telecommunications, the smart tourism system marked an important step forward in applying digital technology to local tourism promotion, management, and development.

Designed to connect tourists, tourism businesses, and government management agencies, LangsonTourism is more than an online source of tourism information. It also helps build a modern tourism environment, strengthen service connectivity, and promote the image of Lang Son to visitors from Vietnam and around the world.

2. Discover New Tourism Experiences Through Digital Technology

One of the highlights of Lang Son's smart tourism system is the application of modern technologies to enrich the way visitors discover destinations.

Virtual reality technology, 360-degree imagery, and immersive visual experiences allow visitors to explore landscapes, spaces, and the unique characteristics of tourism destinations before arriving in person. These technologies offer more than a new way to showcase local attractions; they also inspire curiosity, encourage exploration, and promote Lang Son's beauty beyond geographical boundaries.

Together with digital tourism maps and integrated information services, the platform helps visitors access information more conveniently while providing additional channels for promoting local tourism products and services.

As travelers increasingly rely on online information to research destinations and plan their trips, the application of technology in tourism not only helps improve the user experience but also strengthens Lang Son's image as a dynamic, welcoming destination that embraces digital transformation.

3. Connecting Businesses – Expanding Opportunities for Tourism Development

For tourism businesses, accommodation providers, restaurants, and service operators, LangsonTourism serves as an online promotional channel through which they can showcase their brands, products, and services to a broader audience of potential customers.

Through the digital environment, tourism businesses have more opportunities to reach visitors, increase brand visibility, and expand their promotional reach. Bringing information about destinations, accommodation, and tourism services together on a single platform also helps visitors research and choose services that suit their needs.

More broadly, the smart tourism platform facilitates connections among different stakeholders in the tourism ecosystem, including attractions, accommodation providers, food services, and distinctive local experiences. This creates a foundation for developing diverse travel itineraries, increasing the value of local tourism products, and expanding business opportunities for the tourism community.

As more businesses actively participate in the digital environment and more local tourism products become visible online, Lang Son has greater opportunities to showcase its appeal and attract visitors.

4. Supporting Tourism Management – Building a Foundation for Sustainable Development

In addition to serving tourists and businesses, the smart tourism system is designed to support government agencies in promoting, managing, and developing the local tourism sector.

By consolidating and integrating tourism information and enabling the use of tourism data, the platform provides a foundation for improving operational monitoring, analyzing trends, and supporting the development of appropriate management strategies.

Digital technology contributes to modernizing management practices, strengthening information sharing among stakeholders, and supporting more focused and effective tourism promotion activities.

This approach also aligns with Lang Son's digital transformation objectives, helping the province gradually develop a smart tourism ecosystem, make better use of its tourism resources, and enhance its competitiveness as a destination.

To ensure the platform delivers long-term value, it is particularly important to regularly update and standardize data, expand destination information, improve content quality, and encourage greater participation from tourism businesses and service providers. These efforts will help the system become an increasingly useful source of tourism information that better meets the needs of residents and visitors.
