...

...

...

- System of highlighting works:

Control of landscape of theme parks: science, entertainment, memorial park. For other open spaces: maintaining the biodiversity, rivers, canals and lakes. Control of urban design of areas of center square in urban areas;

b) Organization of design space and landscape

- Duong Dong urban area: the commercial-office axis overlooking the sea is the main urban axis; the starting point is the administrative-political center and Asean square, the end point is Marina port. The coastal North-South axis is to create the landscape architecture area of urban area center with high-rise works; combination with open space system is Duong Dong rivers and lakes and natural landscape as Dien Tien and Khu Tuong mountains;

- Cua Can urban area is a natural gateway between the development center area in the Northern island and is the intersection of the main traffic axis, forming clusters of residential area close to nature.
