The area is designed to have a population size of 3,780 in northwestern Tri Nguyen Island, bordered by the sea to the north and south; and by mountains to the east.

The open space system will include the coastal area, camping site, space for sightseeing and community activities on the peak, public playground on the peak and playground in the residential area. The construction highlights will be on mountain slopes, at the welcome gate, markets and cultural and religious structures.

Existing cemeteries will not be expanded and gradually be moved to a concentration cemetery, according to the adjusted master planning of Nha Trang City till 2025 approved by the Prime Minister in 2012.


The total planning area is 48ha, including 29.64ha for residence, 0.98ha for public land, 2.14ha for parks and green space and 5.07ha for roads.
