HUE - The renovation of the western part of Da Vien islet is still unfinished, becoming a place for grazing cows and returning to the countryside.

Da Vien Islet - a prominent tourist "oasis" in the middle of the Huong River, which is a alluvial land with an area of about 10.5 hectares, located in the southwest of the ancient capital of Hue. This place was once expected to become a new highlight in the landscape system along the Huong River when the local government decided to invest in comprehensive renovation.
Tu nam 2021, TP Hue da trien khai chinh trang khu vuc phia Dong cua con (lay cau Da Vien lam ranh gioi), san lap mat bang, lam duong di bo, xe dap, lap cau go ket noi voi cau duong bo Da Vien. Khu vuc nhanh chong tro thanh diem den yeu thich cua nguoi dan va du khach (tren hinh la khu vuc nha ve sinh hien dai phuc vu nguoi dan).
Since 2021, Hue City has been renovating the eastern area of the islet (using Da Vien bridge as the boundary), leveling the ground, building a pedestrian and bicycle road, installing a wooden bridge connecting to Da Vien road bridge. In the photo is a modern toilet area serving the people.

However, in contrast to the spaciousness and cleanliness of the eastern area, the western part of Da Vien islet, which has also been invested in for renovation but is currently abandoned, many construction items have been temporarily suspended and show signs of deterioration and desertification. According to Lao Dong newspaper reporters, in many locations, weeds and trees grew wildly, even covering the entire path (on the surface was a dead end).
 Nhung doan duong dang lat da granite dang do thi thi cong tam dung, vat lieu da bi chat dong, phu co, nam ngon ngang tren mat bang chua duoc san gat dong bo.
The sections of the road where the granite was being paved were temporarily suspended, the stone materials were piled up, covered with grass, and lying around on the land that had not been leveled synchronously.

Many power panels were damaged, exposed to the sun and rain for a long time.
Do khu vuc qua hoang vang, it nguoi qua lai nen tro thanh noi chan tha bo, lam giam gia tri khong gian cong cong ma du an huong den.
Because the area is so deserted and has few visitors, it should become a place for grazing cows, reducing the value of the public space that the project is aiming for.
Do khu vuc qua hoang vang, it nguoi qua lai nen tro thanh noi chan tha bo, lam giam gia tri khong gian cong cong ma du an huong den. “Phia Tay con Da Vien thinh thoang chi co vai nguoi den, ngay binh thuong it lam” - ong Tran Van Minh (mot nguoi dan) cho hay.
"On the western side of Da Vien islet, there are only a few people coming occasionally, on normal days, very few people" - Mr. Tran Van Minh (a resident) said.
Theo ke hoach, du an chinh trang phia Tay con Da Vien se giai phong khoang 6,6ha, phat quang, lam sach mat bang, dau tu he thong dien nuoc, lat da duong di bo dai khoang 1,5km, ket noi dong bo voi phia Dong con va duong di bo hai ben bo song Huong (tren hinh la mot so ho dan chua duoc giai toa, van co nguoi o).
According to the plan, the project to renovate the western part of Da Vien Islet will clear about 6.6 hectares, clear, clean the ground, invest in electricity and water systems, and pave a walking path about 1.5km long, synchronously connecting with the eastern part of the Islet and the walking path on both sides of the Huong River (on the surface are some households that have not been cleared and still have people living there).
Muc tieu la tao ra truc khong gian mo, gan voi canh quan song Huong, phuc vu nhu cau vui choi, the thao, giai tri cho cong dong (tren hinh la mo phong con Da Vien sau khi duoc chinh trang).
The goal is to create an open space axis, associated with the landscape of the Huong River, serving the needs of entertainment, sports and recreation for the community (on the surface is a simulation of Da Vien islet after being renovated).
 Dac biet, duoi chan cau Da Vien la diem den cua te nan xa hoi, noi xuat hien nhieu bom kim tiem, do do, nguoi dan va du khach van e ngai khi di qua cac loi nay de len phia Tay con.
However, after a long time of launching, the renovation work of the western part of Da Vien is still not in place, lacking synchronization. In particular, at the foot of Da Vien Bridge is a black spot of social evils, where many syringes appear, so people and tourists are still hesitant to go through these paths to the western side of the island.

Regarding the above issue, in an interview with Lao Dong Newspaper, a representative of the leader of the unit carrying out the renovation of Da Vien islet said that the renovation of Da Vien islet is not yet synchronized because of site clearance problems. "Currently, there is only one household stuck in the site, we are rushing to do the renovation to create a synchronous environment for Da Vien public works, serving the community," said the leader of the renovation unit.
