Context

The vast and biodiverse midstream and floating islands of the Red River are a potential ‘green lung’ for Hanoi. Despite being a seamless blend of greenery and water, this area is facing pollution and ecological imbalance. Sustainable development of this massive urban green space can not only improve air quality but also create a vibrant living environment, connecting the two banks of the river and stimulating economic and social growth.

Hanoi City needs comprehensive solutions to protect and restore the environment, while developing suitable tourism, sports, and cultural activities. This will transform the midstream and floating islands into a captivating destination for both locals and visitors.

Vision

The Dragon Park project was born from the aspiration to create a new green heart for Hanoi, where modern urban life blends seamlessly with nature and heritage. With its vast expanse, the park will revitalize forgotten waterways, becoming a new icon that connects communities and honors the capital’s thousand-year history. Its flexible design will allow the park to adapt to the rhythm of life and the changes of the Red River, creating a vibrant and sustainable space.
