The 100 have been placed in 10 categories: hotels, restaurants, transport services, cuisine, specialty foods, destinations, shopping sites, tours, entertainment venues, and outstanding events.

After choosing the top 100, the city will showcase them on 40 large TV screens placed at Tan Son Nhat Airport and tourist destinations around the city and through posters, pamphlets, websites, books, DVDs, and computer memory sticks.

The municipal Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, said around 2,000 4GB USBs containing information about HCMC and its tourist attractions will be sent to 1,000 foreign travel agencies around the world.

The information about it will be available at www.hcmc100e.info and through flyers to be distributed at the airport, hotels, and shopping malls.

Each group will have 15 nominations. The results will be announced at the end of this year.
