Subdivision 2 – Thu Thiem Urban Area Planning
Subdivision 2 – Thu Thiem Urban Area: A Shining Jewel in the Heart of a New City
Embracing the pulse of the era, where sustainable development has become a core value, the world is transforming with green, energy-efficient structures. Governments and investors have swiftly recognized the importance of conserving resources, creating living spaces in harmony with nature to safeguard health and provide lasting welfare for communities.
In line with global trends, Thu Thiem – the new, modern, and vibrant central area of Ho Chi Minh City – is being shaped as a sustainable symbol, a hub for finance, commerce, and world-class entertainment and culture. With its well-planned layout and strategic vision, Thu Thiem is not just an urban district but also a dream that aims to transform the city’s appearance and elevate Vietnam’s position on the global map.
Based on in-depth studies of climate, geography, traffic, and the unique river system of the South, Sasaki Associates – a leading consulting firm from the United States – has created an international-standard master plan for Thu Thiem. This marks a major step in turning the area into the country’s urban economic center, with a history of urban planning dating back to the 1960s, now clearly realized through eight functional zones.
Functional Zone 2: The Hub of a Vibrant Life
Located to the south of the Central Core Area, Functional Zone 2 is the dynamic heart of Thu Thiem. This high-density mixed-use development includes commercial, residential, and sports-entertainment functions, divided into three distinctive sub-zones:
- Zone 2a: Located north of the East-West Boulevard, shaping a modern urban space.
- Zone 2b: The Observation Tower complex – an architectural icon soaring proudly into the sky.
- Zone 2c: The Sports and Entertainment complex, the center of dynamic and lively activities.
The towering buildings along the Crescent Boulevard and Thu Thiem Square are designed with harmonious heights, gradually lowering towards the Saigon River and Central Lake, creating a soft, graceful urban landscape. Architectural highlights in this zone include the Observation Tower, stadium, multi-purpose arena, schools, and local administrative center – all blending into a vibrant and lively overall composition.
Functional Zone 2 is not just a place to live but a place to enjoy, experience, and reach the highest values of modern and sustainable living in the heart of the city. Thu Thiem, with its timeless vision, is gradually becoming a shining jewel of Vietnam on its journey towards international integration.

The Journey of Creating Lotte Eco Smart City – A New Symbol of Thu Thiem
More than a quarter of a century ago, the idea of a smart urban area in the heart of Thu Thiem was conceived in the strategic vision of the Lotte Group. As early as 1994-1995, when Lotte had not yet officially entered Vietnam (1996), the ambition to create a perfect highlight for the modern urban area was already in the works. By 2017, that vision was officially realized through the signing of the Lotte Eco Smart City development project – a complex that is not only a place to live but also a symbol of the harmony between technology and nature.
This iconic project is entrusted to four subsidiaries of the Lotte Group:
- Lotte Asset Development: Bringing world-class asset management.
- Lotte Shopping: Enhancing living spaces with shopping centers like Diamond Plaza, Lotte Mart, and the e-commerce platform Lotte.vn.
- Lotte Hotel: Creating refined resort experiences.
- Lotte Engineering and Construction: Laying the solid foundation for the future.
With its economic strength and vast experience, the Lotte Group aspires to make Lotte Eco Smart City the new heart of Thu Thiem, where nature, technology, and culture blend and flourish in every breath.
