The city is calling for investment in entertainment parks that meet regional and international standards.
Hanoi’s authorities have approved a 1/500 scale detailed planning map for Ho Tay Water Park and New Sun Park, allowing the construction of these facilities to get started soon.
The new entertainment parks would help the city avoid the current shortage of sizable amusement parks and modern entertainment complexes.

Under the plan, these amusement parks will have spaces reserved for indoor and outdoor activities and theme parks. Ho Tay Water Park is expected to become an attraction with a comprehensive technical infrastructure.
Currently, Ho Tay Water Park and Bao Son Paradise Park, Hanoi’s two biggest outdoor entertainment complexes, together with some indoor fun zones located in shopping malls such as Vincom Royal City, Vincom Mega Mall Times City and Aeon Mall have been unable to meet the demand for recreation of Hanoi’s residents.
According to Chairman of Sunvina Travel Company Ta Huu Chien, Hanoi is lacking large-scale entertainment and recreation complexes that are attractive enough for travelers to spend more money and time.
Former General Secretary of the Association of Cities of Vietnam Nguyen Lan told Kinh te & Do thi that the city should call for investment to build parks of the size of Disneyland Resort (California, the US), DreamWord (Golden Coast, Australia), or Everland (South Korea), Disneyland (Paris, France). These parks are expected not only to meet the local demand but also serve foreign tourists.
According to the Hanoi Department of Planning and Architecture, building large scale amusement parks that meet regional and international standards is already in the city’s planning of parks and flower gardens. However, it is facing shortage of funding to be carried out and the city is counting on private resources for this purpose.
Hanoi is calling for domestic and foreign investment in various entertainment projects, including a 96 ha amusement park project in Ha Cau ward, Ha Dong distric; a project on ecological and flower garden in Bac Tu Liem district, in an area of 178 ha; a project of theme parks along the Hanoi – Hai Phong Highway (in Long Bien and Gia Lam districts), in an area of 200 ha and the project of Dong Mo Entertainment Service and Tourist Park in Son Tay town, in 264ha.
