Check-in with photos at the tourist destinations - new tourism trend in Can Tho city
Date: 03/02/2021

Check-in tourism is a favorite trend for travelers. First, it is affordable. Second, you can take wonderful photos or beautiful selfie pictures to post on social networks. There are many famous check-in destinations in Can Tho in particular and the Mekong Delta region in general.
Check-in at the gold-plated house.

Having recently opened, Nguyen Van Trung's gold-plated house at No. 18, Sixth street (Thoi Nhut 2 residential area, An Khanh ward, Ninh Kieu district), is attracting many tourists. Coming here, you will be surprised by the gold-plated objects, from home appliances, to interior decorations, souvenirs, etc. The collected items from classical to modern are luxuriously crafted in the royal style. Not only contemplate these unique objects, but visitors can also try sitting on the throne as kings or queens. The gold-plated house is becoming a popular destination for check-in on weekends.

Before that, in June 2020, the Purple House (Chi Sinh Street, Tan Phu Ward, Cai Rang District) became a “hot” destination in Can Tho. With an area of nearly 5,000m2, this special place is covered with purple colors from houses, miniatures, objects to plants. The most unique is the purple house built on the trunk of a giant crape-myrtle tree, known as Bang Lang in Vietnamese, surrounded by a small ditch - a place for visitors to practice boat rowing freely. For young people, families, purple-lovers, the purple house has become the spot for check-in photos during holidays. On average, this place welcomes about 300-500 visitors every day, sometimes up to 1,000-2,000. To meet the needs of customers, the Purple House owner also provides a new service of selling folk cakes with purple colors. Currently, the Purple House is still one of the most attractive destinations in Can Tho city.

Lunar December is also the blooming season of many colorful flowers. The field of European Michaelmas daisy (Vo Van Kiet street, Binh Thuy district) is one of the popular spots for check-in pictures. Thousands of European Michaelmas daisies blossomed simultaneously, forming an array of purple flowers on an area of about 700 m2 in the campus of Hoa Hong Coffee Shop. The field of European Michaelmas daisy has become famous since it was open to welcome visitors from January 2020. The flowers blooming evenly create a poetic scene. The flower field is adorned with more romantic elements such as a heart-shaped bridge, floating bird's nest, ideal hut, paradise swings ...

In recent years, Can Tho tourism has transformed itself with many positive changes, thus catching up with the visitors’ check-in tourism trend. A series of studios and coffee shops have been carefully invested in both size and style, creating a unique space for guests to have their desired photos. In addition to unique spots such as Co Tham Coffee Shop (Xuan Hong Street, Long Tuyen Ward, Binh Thuy) displaying thousands of ancient artifacts or Song Tho coffee shop on the tree (Hau river embankment, Cai Khe ward, Ninh Kieu District), Can Tho also has a series of destinations for check-in pictures that have their own special features suitable for young people. For example, a mini Dalat at Co Ngot tea shop (102/16 Le Lai, An Phu ward, Ninh Kieu district), Hoa Mi coffee shop (51A9, Tran Nam Phu, An Khanh ward, Ninh Kieu district); or a corner of Hoi An ancient town with sparkling lanterns in Ga Can Tho coffee (10 Tran Dai Nghia, Cai Khe ward, Ninh Kieu); or Sing Coffee (41 Tran Van Hoai, Xuan Khanh ward, Ninh Kieu district) which is designed in a nostalgic style, recreating the old house with objects from decades ago. These are all popular places for check-in pictures in Can Tho city.

Check-in tourism contributes to promoting the tourist destinations of a locality. For example, Dalat is famous for being a check-in paradise for tourists. Can Tho city has become more well-known with this tourism trend for about 2 years, showing the ability to quickly grasp the tourist’s tastes, thus aiming to build appropriate tourism products suitable for each season.
