The village, funded by the Luxembourg Government, is located close to the World Cultural Heritage Site of My Son.

Forty households took part in the project, 30 of them from My Son hamlet.

To ensure the effectiveness and sustainability of community tourism, five households built service facilities with a total sum of US$15,000 mobilised by ILO.
