The Prime Minister has approved a master plan for Trang An scenic landscape complex in Ninh Binh province.

Under the planning, the total natural land area of the complex will sprawl over 12,252ha in the districts of Hoa Lu, Gia Vien, Nho Quan, Ninh Binh city and Tam Diep township.
Specially, Trang An scenic landscape complex has the area of 6,226ha.
The complex's surrounding buffer area has an area 6,026ha, sitting on parts of 20 local communes and precincts.
The entire space is divided into 4 zones including: Bai Dinh (in the west), a spiritual tourism destination and new university and urban area; Truong Yen-Ninh Hoa - gateway to the north; Ninh Nhat-Ninh Tien - gateway to the east; and Ninh Thang-Ninh Hai - gateway to the south, with rural residential areas and tourism services.
The Trang An Complex is home to around 500 flora species, 73 species of birds and 41 species of other animals and has a diverse ecosystem with unique geological characteristics.
Archaeological traces of human activity dating back thousands of years have been found within the complex.
The Trang An Complex boasts several nationally recognised sites like the Trang An ecotourism site and Hoa Lu, Vietnam's capital in the 10th and 11th centuries.
The complex also has many other temples, pagodas, paddy fields, villages and other sacred sites.
The Trang An Complex was recognised by UNESCO as a Cultural and Natural World Heritage Site in 2014.
