The area is connected with the Prime Minister’s January 2015 directive regarding a culture, tourism, and trade centre project to raise money for a national exhibition and fair centre. The residential area will cover more than 75 hectares, and will contain houses, lakes, green spaces, and schools, and will accommodate 10,000 people. It is expected to serve as a model “garden city” in south Hanoi.
