1. Urgency of the topic

INTRODUCTION


Nowadays, tourism has become an indispensable human need and one of the largest economic sectors on the planet, strongly affecting economic, cultural and social life such as creating income, creating jobs, improving people's intellectual level, etc.

In Vietnam, at the 9th Party Congress, it was determined: “…Develop tourism to truly become a spearhead economic sector; improve the quality and efficiency of operations on the basis of exploiting advantages in natural conditions, ecology, traditions, culture, and history to meet domestic tourism needs and rapidly develop international tourism, soon achieving the level of tourism development of the region…”. The tourism industry has received great attention from the Party and the State, so in recent years it has achieved initial positive achievements.

In the context of the country's growing development, the life of each person is increasingly busy, the need to travel is increasing. The purpose is to relax the mind and discover new things. In the general trend of tourism in the whole country, tourism in Long An province has also contributed to embellishing the picture of Vietnam tourism, because this is a land formed with the influence of the famous Oc Eo civilization, with customs and practices typical of the culture, folk arts of the ethnic community, with the tradition of fighting foreign invaders of the people "Loyal and resilient, the whole people fight the enemy". On the other hand, mentioning Long An is to recall in the memory and soul of the Vietnamese people a famous land with many places marking a heroic historical period with names still recorded in the history of the nation such as: Nguyen Trung Truc, Nguyen Dinh Chieu, Nguyen Huu Huan, Vo Van Tan, Nguyen Huu Tho, Nguyen Thai Binh, Vo Thi Thang, ..

However, Long An's tradition and people are valuable resources for the locality to develop a comprehensive, multi-sector economy towards industrialization and modernization, including tourism. With those incentives, it promises many interesting things, attracting tourists from all over the world to visit the beautiful landscape of Dong Thap Muoi river. But at present, in general, Long An's tourism industry has not developed commensurate with its available potential, and business management still has many limitations. For the above reasons, I have chosen the topic: "Potential, current situation and orientation for exploiting tourism resources of Long An province towards sustainable development" with the desire to make practical contributions to the development of tourism in the province so that Long An is always an attractive destination for domestic and foreign tourists.

4. Research history

Tourism is a topic that has been researched a lot, but the topic " Potential, current status and orientation of exploiting tourism resources in Long An province towards sustainable development" has few approaches, and if there are, the approach is not comprehensive and not deep.


5. Methodology and research methods

5.1. Methodology

5.1.1. General view

The application of a synthetic perspective allows to consider factors and events in interactive relationships, discover the laws of development, conditions, factors affecting tourism development and determine tourist routes. The tourism territorial system is considered as a social system made up of many natural, cultural, historical, human, etc. elements that are closely related and completely connected to each other. Therefore, the research, identification and evaluation of tourism resources are often viewed in a certain spatial or territorial relationship to achieve synchronous values ​​in terms of economy, society and environment. Tourist routes are considered as an open system with close relationships with tourist routes in other territories and other components.

5.1.2. Territorial perspective

This is a widely used viewpoint in tourism research. According to this viewpoint, the study of a specific object must be placed in correlation with other objects, with elements in higher and lower systems. Tourism is a territory consisting of many components, although having its own characteristics and functions, it always has a mutual relationship with the systems as well as must operate according to the laws of the whole system. Therefore, the topic always thoroughly grasps the territorial system viewpoint.

5.1.3. Historical perspective - perspective

This viewpoint is expressed in: paying attention to geographical and historical aspects when determining tourist routes and destinations of the country in general and Long An in particular.

Analyze the formation and development of tourist routes and destinations in specific historical contexts and take into account sustainable development.

5.1.4. Sustainable development perspective

When exploiting any resource to serve tourism development, people must outline many aspects to exploit effectively while still ensuring good resource development. Therefore, the sustainable perspective raises the issue of how we use resources reasonably to bring high efficiency and long-term value.

5.2. Research methods

5.2.1. Methods of data collection, processing and statistics

Collect information and documents from many different sources and fields to ensure sufficient and accurate information to meet the needs of tourism organizations.

5.2.2. Field survey method

It is a method of directly collecting tourism information data in the research area.

The amount of information collected is guaranteed to be close to reality, highly reliable, creating a basis for proposing development orientations and reasonable implementation solutions.

5.2.3. Investigation interview method

This is a method of collecting data through talking to the person in charge of the problem being researched. This method helps us to understand the problem specifically through interviews.

Before the interview, you need to pay attention to a few issues such as: You need to prepare a few questions before the interview.

Questions should be short and concise, not confusing to the interviewee. Words should be chosen from the field being asked, avoiding local terms.

5.2.4. Methods of analysis, synthesis and evaluation

After collecting the information, how to process the information effectively is a big problem for us. Therefore, this method helps researchers to analyze the data in detail.

After analyzing the collected data, we can synthesize the problem and thereby assess the problem more accurately.

5.2.5. Mapping, remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) methods

Since the research area is often large in scale, using maps will help us have a comprehensive view. Research also needs to be expressed through map construction.

5.2.6. The cartographic method has two main functions.

Reflects the spatial characteristics of the distribution of tourism resources, infrastructure, technical facilities serving tourism, and tourist flows.

It is the basis for analyzing and discovering the operating rules of the tourism territorial system, based on which to determine the development direction and organization of tourism space in the future.

Geographic Information System (GIS) is a new method that helps researchers synthesize research information by displaying objects through charts and maps in problem assessment by digitizing collected data.

5.2.7. Mathematical methods

This method brings clear results for the study of the tourism territorial system in the current conditions. It works with a huge amount of information thanks to electronic computers, shortening the time for processing documents. The statistical sample method is specialized for studying the ability to select in tourism. The correlation analysis method aims to determine the synthesis of factors and their influence on the formation of the tourism rest territorial system...

CHAPTER 1 : THEORETICAL BASIS

1.1. Concept of tourism

Nowadays, worldwide, tourism has become an indispensable need in cultural and social life and tourism activities are being developed strongly, becoming an important economic sector in many countries around the world. Therefore, the term "tourism" has become very popular. It originates from French: "Tour" means to go around, a walk, and "Tourist" is a person who goes for a walk.

According to the International Union Official Travel Organization (IUOTO): “Tourism is understood as the act of traveling to a place other than one's usual residence for purposes other than business, that is, not to do a job or earn a living...”

At the United Nations Conference on Tourism held in Rome - Italy (August 21 - September 5, 1963), experts defined tourism as: "Tourism is the sum of relationships, phenomena and economic activities arising from the travel and stay of individuals or groups outside their usual place of residence or outside their country for peaceful purposes. The place they go to stay is not their place of work".

According to (IIPirogionic, 1985): "Tourism is a form of leisure time activity of people related to temporary movement and stay outside the usual place of residence for the purpose of rest, medical treatment, physical and mental development, improvement of cultural awareness or sports accompanied by the consumption of natural, economic and cultural values".

1.2. Concept of tourism resources

Tourism is one of the industries with clear resource orientation. Tourism resources directly affect the territorial organization of the tourism industry, the formation and specialization of tourism areas and the economic efficiency of service activities.

Tourism resources include different components and combinations of natural landscapes and human (cultural) landscapes that can be used for tourism services and satisfy the needs of medical treatment, relaxation, sightseeing or tourism.

Tourism resources are the natural and cultural-historical complex and their components that contribute to the restoration and development of human physical and mental strength, their working capacity and health. These resources are used for direct and indirect needs, for the production of tourism services.
