Hanoi to receive $150 million amusement park
Hanoi has become an attractive investment destination for international-standard amusement parks.
Chairman of Bao Son Group Nguyen Truong Son has announced plans to develop an amusement park inspired by international theme parks like Lotte World in South Korea and Genting Highlands in Malaysia, with a total investment capital of $150 million. The construction is expected to be conducted in the next year in the campus of Bao Son Paradise Park.
This pushes the total investment capital in Bao Son Paradise Park to VND5.5 trillion ($241.9 million). The group expects that the project will help Bao Son Paradise Park become an indispensable destination for foreign visitors in Hanoi as well as a half of the Vietnamese population.
The information was announced in the opening ceremony of the safari complex in Bao Son Paradise Park, marking the opening of the first safari in Hanoi and the fourth in Vietnam. The 2.6-hectare safari comprises of a complex of waterfalls, a bird park, rivers, and primeval forest mountains.
The site has various animals from South Africa and North America, such as zebras, white tigers, white lions, dotted hyenas, cheetahs, and more.
Earlier in September 2, 2016, Sun Group organised the ground-breaking ceremony of the 198-hectare Kim Quy (Golden Turtle) Amusement Park, in Dong Anh district.
The $209-million park features both the traditional culture of Hanoi and the modern design of Universal Studios and Disneyland Hong Kong.
The project is expected to become a highlight of the city’s tourism and an attractive destination for domestic and foreign tourists in the future, turning tourism into a spearhead sector of the city. The first phase of the project would be completed as per schedule in 18 months, ensuring international quality standards.
