Summary of thesis results: - Developing a system of indicators to evaluate the potential for exploiting intangible cultural resources of folk games to serve tourism development. + The group of indicators evaluating the ability of folk games to attract tourists includes: attractiveness, connectivity, and sustainability, used to assess the attractiveness of folk games to tourists. + The group of indicators evaluating the supply capacity of tourist destinations with folk games includes: organization time, location, safety, infrastructure and technical facilities, and tourist capacity, used to assess the supply capacity of tourist destinations with folk games. - Based on these criteria, research and evaluate some folk games that are attractive to tourists in the Thai Binh River basin. + For the folk game of Sky Lanterns, the evaluation scale indicates that the potential for tourism development of this intangible cultural resource is "Fair," meaning it can be invested in and exploited to serve domestic and international tourists, but requires a specific exploitation process within a defined framework. + For the folk game of Flute Kites, the evaluation scale indicates that the potential for exploitation to serve tourism development is "Good," meaning it can be exploited for tourism and created as a tourism product immediately. + For the folk game of Firecrackers, the evaluation scale indicates that the potential for exploitation to serve tourism is "Fair," meaning it can be developed into a tourism product, but requires planning and a specific exploitation process within a defined framework. - Based on the above evaluation results, and drawing on the tourism development orientations in the world and in Vietnam, as well as the experiences of some pioneering countries, this thesis proposes several basic solutions to exploit folk games to serve tourism development at several locations in the Thai Binh River basin. + Solutions for product development. + Solutions for building supply capacity. + General solutions: solutions for tourism promotion and branding; solutions for state management of tourism. 11.
