The revenue surged 3.6 times from the same period last year while the number of tourists increased 2.8 times.

Among the arrivals, 535,000 were foreigners.

In February, the Vietnamese capital city welcomed 1.98 million visitors, up 15 percent from January. 

The month’s tourism revenue was estimated at VND7 trillion ($295.3 million), up 13 percent from January.

February’s occupancy rate of hotel rooms was 56.2 percent, decreasing insignificantly by 0.5 percent compared to January.
