Implementing the policy and direction of the City Party Committee and the People's Committee of Hanoi on the establishment of the Project "Developing the middle and alluvial areas of the Red River into a multifunctional cultural park", the competition was organized by the Architecture Magazine in collaboration with the four districts of Hoan Kiem, Long Bien, Ba Dinh and Tay Ho to exploit new ideas suitable for the land fund of the middle and alluvial areas of the Red River.
From there, forming a system of cultural parks worthy of the level, effectively investing in land funds, improving landscape and environmental sanitation, developing economy, society, national security and defense. At the same time, aiming to concretize the Red River urban zoning plan, orienting the organization of landscape space of the Red River urban zoning plan at a scale of 1/5000 (section from Hong Ha bridge to Me So bridge) has been approved by the City People's Committee.
Vice Chairman of Hanoi People's Committee Duong Duc Tuan shared at the contest launching ceremony.
Speaking at the event, Dr. Architect Duong Duc Tuan, Vice Chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee, said that the formation and development of Hanoi is closely linked to the formation and development of the water system, especially the Red River. This river plays a very important role in creating landscape elements and is a typical cultural feature of the capital.
Besides creating a fertile farming area for agricultural development, the Red River's function in transportation, economic and social activities as well as its contributions to the development of green space and landscape architecture of the Capital is very clear.
Previously, within the framework of the Hanoi Creative Design Festival 2023, the Workshop “Project to build a cultural landscape park in the middle of the Red River - vision and solutions” took place with the participation of many experts and urban managers. Accordingly, many requirements were set for the competition plans to select feasible planning ideas.
"The contest idea needs to effectively exploit the land fund, advantages, potentials, and natural beauty of the Red River, promoting the unique features of each district. Above all, it is necessary to take the Red River as a landscape axis to create open, green spaces with civilized and modern urban infrastructure," the Vice Chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee emphasized.

The competition also contributes to promoting creative design activities in the community, aiming to build green, safe, convenient spaces, and basic spaces, creating momentum for the development of the cultural industry. The Organizing Committee hopes to attract investors and startups, aiming to develop cultural and historical values in forming a comprehensive creative activity model, not only for Hanoi but also for the whole country.
In addition, there are many more studies to orient and propose overall solutions for landscape architecture planning so that the park is complete in ideas and content, creative and practical, as a basis for detailed implementation, selecting suitable investment projects in the next phase.
"Currently, with Hanoi participating in the UNESCO Global Creative Cities Network, the policies of the Party and State have become a guideline for exploiting and developing the Red River into an important landscape axis. Especially the Red River sandbank area aims to create landscape architecture space, including creative cultural spaces and socio-economic development of the Capital", Mr. Duong Duc Tuan added.
According to the Organizing Committee, the competition for ideas for planning a multi-functional cultural park in the middle and bank areas of the Red River is aimed at prestigious organizations and individuals in the field of creative design consulting, operating domestically and internationally. In addition, there will be survey, discussion and voting activities related to the contest content in many different forms. The total prize value of the contest is up to 1 billion VND, including: 1 First prize, 1 Second prize and 1 Third prize. The Award Ceremony and announcement of results is expected to take place in October 2024. |
