The Duong Noi Urban Area is a large-scale project in the West of Hanoi, invested by Nam Cuong Group. Located in Duong Noi Ward, Ha Dong District, Hanoi, the area boasts hundreds of luxurious villas worth tens of billions of VND.
The project was commenced in 2008 with an initial investment of 7,642 billion VND. Today, many villas and adjacent houses have been completed but lie idle and deserted, with no occupants.
The 197.3-hectare project site is eerily quiet and still.
Villas have been abandoned for years, with many facilities falling into disrepair.
