Ecopark Van Giang near Hanoi: location, scale and legal status
Ecopark Van Giang, a township of nearly 500 ha east of Hanoi: developer, location, home types, open amenities and what to check before buying.
· 3 min read · ecoparkvn.com
Ecopark Van Giang is Ecopark's first and largest township, on the eastern side of Hanoi in Hung Yen province. When people search for "Ecopark", this is usually the place they mean: a green town where residents have lived for years, with schools, a university campus, parks and large lakes. This page brings together the published facts so you can picture it before a viewing.
Where is Ecopark Van Giang and who is the developer?
Public records name the developer as Ecopark Group Joint Stock Company. The township covers parts of the former Xuan Quan, Cuu Cao and Phung Cong communes in what was Van Giang district, Hung Yen province. Vietnam reorganised its local administrative units in 2025, so commune and district names have changed. Always check the current address printed on the contract and certificate for the specific unit.
Media reports put it about 14 km from Hoan Kiem Lake. Residents usually reach central Hanoi over Thanh Tri or Vinh Tuy bridge and along Nguyen Van Linh road. Travel time depends heavily on rush hour, so do the drive yourself at the time you would normally commute.
Scale and home types
| Item | Published information |
|---|---|
| Site area | About 499 ha (often rounded to 500 ha) |
| Greenery and water | About 100 ha |
| Construction start | 2009 |
| Home types | Apartments, townhouses, villas, shophouses |
| Status | Occupied, with new sub-zones still being released |
Sub-zones that appear most often in sales and rental listings include Sky Oasis, Haven Park Residences and Swan Lake Onsen Residences, plus lakeside villa and townhouse areas. Each one has its own handover date, tenure and pricing, so ask about the exact unit you are considering.
Amenities already open
- Swan Lake park, which hosts holiday events and has a kayak jetty for residents.
- Kindergartens, schools and a campus of the British University Vietnam (BUV).
- The Ecobus internal shuttle linking the sub-zones.
- Retail streets, restaurants, healthcare and sports facilities inside the township.
Owners of townhouses and garden villas often add solar lights along paths and fences: bright at night, with no cabling needed.
Legal status and tenure: what to ask
Because the township has been built over many years, you will find homes that already have ownership certificates alongside off-plan stock. For any unit, ask:
- Whether the certificate has been issued; for off-plan homes, whether the provincial Department of Construction has confirmed the unit is eligible for sale.
- The land-use term on the certificate: long-term residential land, or a fixed term (common for apartments, condotels and shophouses).
- Whether you are buying from the developer or on resale. On resale, check the original certificate, any mortgage registered on it and the contract-transfer paperwork.
The full step-by-step list is in our Ecopark legal checklist.
Tips before buying in Ecopark Van Giang
- Visit on a weekday and at the weekend to judge traffic, road noise and how busy the amenities get.
- Ask about service charges and parking fees for the sub-zone; they add up over the years.
- Compare primary and resale prices for the same unit type.
- Ignore promises of guaranteed returns. Rents and resale values depend on the market and nobody can guarantee them.

Costs on top of the price
The figure on a price list is rarely everything you pay. Add:
- 10% VAT on the building part of the price (not on the land-use fee), if the list shows prices before VAT.
- A 2% maintenance fund on apartments, paid at handover.
- A 0.5% registration fee when the ownership certificate is issued.
- Monthly management and parking fees.
- Fit-out and move-in costs: kitchen, curtains, lighting, storage.
A simple first-year cost sheet lets you compare projects fairly, rather than comparing price per square metre alone.
Who is Ecopark Van Giang for?
It suits families who work in Hanoi but want children to grow up near trees, lakes and schools in one place, and buyers who prefer a township whose amenities already run rather than waiting for a new one to take shape. If you work on the west side of Hanoi and would cross a bridge every day, time that commute honestly before deciding. Expatriates should also confirm with the developer whether a given building is open to foreign buyers.
