QUANG NINH, Vietnam — Tour boats in Ha Long Bay, a newly voted world heritage site in the northern coastal province of Quang Ninh, have been banned from stopping at floating fishing villages during tours since the start of this month, according to the provincial People’s Committee.
Chairman of the committee Nguyen Van Doc said the move was aimed at preventing tourists from being disturbed, overcharged or even ripped off, which had become a common occurrence at private floating fishing houses.
