Launched on May 10, the competition attracted nearly 30 meticulously researched proposals submitted by reputable design firms and consortiums from Vietnam and abroad, according to Ta Nam Chien, Chairman of the Ba Dinh District People’s Committee.
The competition aims to find unique and innovative design ideas on how to transform the land resources of the sandbank under the jurisdiction of the four Red River districts of Hoan Kiem, Long Bien, Ba Dinh and Tay Ho for the multifunctional cultural and tourism park.
The initiative give priority to optimizing land use, leveraging potential advantages, enhancing the landscape, improving environmental health, and promoting socio-economic development and national security.
It also targets to concretize the development plan for the Red River urban area, which spans from Hong Ha Bridge to Me So Bridge, as approved by the municipal People's Committee.

As the concepts are still theoretical, further research will ensure that they meet practical needs in the face of climate change, said Pham Tuan Long, Chairman of the Hoan Kiem District People's Committee.
The outstanding ideas will serve as the basis for an initiative to develop the sandbank and riparian areas of the Red River into a multifunctional cultural park, he added.
"This project aims to build a cultural industrial center along the Red River, improve the quality of life for residents, and transform Hanoi into a civilized and modern capital that stands out in the region," the chairman said.
The outstanding proposals from the competition are currently on display at the 2024 Community Creative Ideas Exhibition, which serves as a platform to gather, celebrate, and nurture the innovations of both emerging and established creators across multiple sectors.
