The distance between the project and HCMC’s District 1 is 19 kilometers.

All apartments will be furnished with famous brands and will go on sale in March 2024, with an expected selling price of from VND1.4 billion ($57,354) to VND2.2 billion ($90,127).
As many as 75% will be priced from VND1.4 billion ($57,354) to VND1.8 billion ($73,740) per unit, suitable for the needs of young families.
