Hanoi has unveiled a plan to develop no-smoking zones in popular tourist spots, Vietnam News Agency (VNA) reports.
Smoke-free tourist sites, restaurants, hotels and offices will be established in places such as the Old Quarter, Hoan Kiem Lake and shopping malls.
A campaign on harmful effects of smoking will be disseminated through the media to every part of the city.
Authorities will conduct inter-sector inspections and fine violators.
The tourism sector contributes a considerable share to Hanoi’s budget.
Hanoi received 16.5 million tourists including three million foreigners last year, up 16 percent from 2013.
The Law on Tobacco Harm Prevention that took effect on May 1, 2013 bans smoking in public places but regulations have not been enforced effectively.
