(VOVworld)- Quang Ninh province authorities have announced a plan to build a second cable system on Yen Tu Mountain, famous for its beautiful landscape and Buddhist heritage.

According to the plan, the total length of the two new cable routes will be 2,200m. The destination landing station will be situated some 500m away from King-Monk Tran Nhan Tong’s statue and some 600m away from the Dong Pagoda. The project with a total investment of 650 billion VND (2.9 million USD) is aimed at reducing traffic jams during the festive days.
