INTRODUCTION

1. Urgency of the thesis


In recent years, tourism has become one of the fastest growing industries in the world (according to the World Travel and Tourism Council WTTC). Governments are increasingly recognizing the power of tourism in promoting prosperity and economic development of their countries. Vietnam has greater tourism potential than many countries in the region (Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore), but tourism development in Vietnam is still limited. In 2016, according to the General Statistics Office, Vietnam welcomed less than 10 million international visitors and direct revenue from tourism accounted for about 45% of the country's GDP. Tourism is an economic sector that contributes a lot to GDP, creates jobs for many workers, helps "eliminate hunger and reduce poverty"... if each locality knows how to exploit and develop properly (for example: localities tend to link up, take advantage of their own advantages to develop the economy in general and tourism in particular).

Economic corridors (ECs) are a special form of territorial organization (TE) of our country. Over the past decade, many EECs have been formed. On July 11, 2008, the Prime Minister signed Decision No. 98/2008/QD-TTg approving the Development Plan for the EEC Lang Son - Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh to 2020. The content of the Plan shows extensive cooperation in all fields of localities in the corridor, including tourism. The Plan clearly states: "The "open" tourism development direction of the international EEC Lang Son - Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh allows the organization of a system of routes and tourist destinations with many types of tourism and attractive tourism products, commensurate with the development stature and tourism position of the territory in the overall tourism development strategy of the whole country"... However, due to the lack of a method, the EEC Lang Son - Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh allows the organization of a system of routes and tourist destinations with many types of tourism and attractive tourism products, commensurate with the development stature and tourism position of the territory in the general tourism development strategy of the whole country"... However, due to the lack of a method, the EEC Lang Son - Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh allows the organization of a system of routes and tourist destinations with many types of tourism and attractive tourism products, commensurate with the development stature and tourism position of the territory in the general tourism development strategy of the whole country"... However, due to the lack of a method, the EEC Lang Son - Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh allows the organization of a system of routes and tourist destinations with many types of tourism and attractive tourism products, commensurate with the development stature and tourism position of the territory in the general tourism development strategy of the whole country"... However, due to the lack of a method, the EEC Lang Son - Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh international EEC ...


Due to the lack of specific development and cooperation plans and suitable investment plans, the economic corridors in our country have not developed as expected and have not brought about high results and efficiency. One of the reasons for this situation is that tourism development along the corridors, which should have been a significant strength, has not been exploited for development. Tourism development is in a spontaneous state, reducing the potential and advantages of each locality along the economic corridor. In fact, tourism development along the economic corridor is the connection and maximization of the comparative advantages of each locality along the economic corridor to bring about the highest efficiency and results in tourism development.

The Lang Son - Hanoi economic corridor (based on the existence of a vital traffic axis running through four localities: Lang Son, Bac Giang, Bac Ninh and Hanoi), is a part of two important economic corridors: Lang Son

Hanoi Ho Chi Minh City Moc Bai and Lang Son Hanoi Hai Phong, located along National Highway 1A. The section through the Lang Son Hanoi corridor is 180 km long. Currently, when the expressway along National Highway 1A is completed, from Hanoi tourists

The tour can easily reach the attractive tourist destinations of the Northern provinces.

Giang, Bac Ninh and Lang Son, and will attract a large number of tourists from China to Vietnam through Lang Son border gate and then spread to other attractive tourist destinations in our country. HLKT Lang Son - Hanoi has great potential for tourism development, but localities develop spontaneously, not closely linked together, so the efficiency is low. Therefore, to develop tourism effectively, increase the number of days of stay of tourists, increase tourism revenue, tourism has the opportunity to develop more sustainably... localities only have the connection road, specifically developing tourism of localities along the HLKT route.

In today's world, connectivity has become an important factor in economic development processes in general and tourism development in particular. Up to now,


The linkage in the field of tourism development has not been adequately studied. How to link tourism development along the corridor to fully exploit the tourism potential of each locality along the economic corridor? Many doctoral theses and scientific topics have conducted research in the following directions: sustainable tourism development, tourism territory organization, exploitation of routes, tours or provincial-level scientific topics to research tourism value chains...; there has not been any thesis or topic that has researched the direction of tourism development along the economic corridor in a complete and systematic manner. So, what is tourism development along the economic corridor? What factors affect tourism development along the economic corridor? How to evaluate the effectiveness of tourism development along the economic corridor?... have not been clarified.

Faced with such a situation, the researcher chose the issue "Tourism Development".

5. Theoretical framework, approach and research methods

a. Theoretical framework of research approach

i) Theoretical framework of the thesis


To build a theoretical research framework, the author must build scientific hypotheses and research questions:

+ What is developing tourism along the HLKT route? What benefits does it bring?

What should be done and where to start to develop tourism along the HLKT route?

+ If tourism is not developed along the Lang Son - Hanoi expressway, how will tourism development in the research territory (including 4 provinces and cities of Lang Son, Bac Giang, Bac Ninh and Hanoi) be? What are the losses due to tourism development not following the expressway?

+ The effectiveness (economic, social and environmental) of tourism development according to

What does the economic corridor bring? What criteria should be used to evaluate it?

To complete the thesis, the author outlines the theoretical framework for research starting from the theoretical study of tourism development, economic corridors, reviewing the practice of tourism development in Vietnam as well as in some countries, proposing the theory of tourism development along the economic corridor. Based on the analysis of tourism development potential and the current status of tourism development in 4 localities in the area

Research to propose orientations and solutions for tourism development along routes
