According to Luong Thanh Hai, Deputy Head of the Yen Bai City Construction Investment Project Management Board, in order to promote the exploitation value of the Ben Au Lau Historical Relic Site, in the future, the Board will study and propose to the city leaders and Yen Bai province leaders the idea of expanding the relic site, ecological area, and organizing cruise activities on the river to welcome tourists to the other side.
