Authorities to open higher numbers of hotels at Ngapali beach for its autumn festival

The Directorate of Hotels and Tourism and the departments concerned launched the first autumn festival including sports games at Ngapali beach under the supervision of the Rakhine State government on 14 November 2021. Then, the people who were experiencing anxiety due to the COVID-19 pandemic came to the beach for relaxation and the hotels were fully booked and the domestic flights operated well.
The tourism management committee conducted the seminars and training courses in the first week of October for the service groups regarding the cleanliness of the beach, health issues and environmental conservation for the festival to be held in early November. The hoteliers also make preparations to open a larger number of hotels than last year in which 79 hotels opened, and the airlines sell the tickets in advance.

All are working hard to celebrate this autumn festival actively and so we invite the local and foreign travellers to pay a visit here. The Manaung island is a perfect place with its natural beauty and so the travellers are warmly welcomed,” said U Tin Htut Aung, Director of the Directorate of Hotels and Tourism of Rakhine State.
