The project is planned into 4 areas with the goal of creating a sports urban area, a service urban area associated with an international-level sports complex, contributing to enhancing the position of the capital Hanoi on the map of continental and international sports and culture, creating momentum for sustainable development for many decades.

The heart of the sports complex is a national project - Trong Dong Stadium is deployed on an area of 73.3 hectares, with a capacity of up to 135,000 seats, designed as a FIFA-standard stadium with the largest capacity and automatic roof.

In addition to the record for scale, Trong Dong is also the most unique stadium on the planet, with design details imbued with Vietnamese cultural sound, imbued with the unique patterns of Dong Son bronze drums, creating a project that is both modern and symbolic of Vietnamese spirit.

In particular, the stadium is positioned as a green and smart project, integrated with AI with the ability to replace the stadium surface in 6-10 hours; smart seats connected to 5G; real-time security and traffic control; collect - recycle water to save 70% of clean water; prevent heat absorption and UV rays; naturally ventilate to reduce air conditioning energy, reduce noise...
