The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Agriculture and Environment has sent a document to the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee regarding the review of vacant land areas to be used as temporary parks and flower gardens for the 2026 Lunar New Year.

According to the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Agriculture and Environment, following the directive of the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee regarding the exploitation and use of vacant land in Saigon, Tan Dinh, Ben Thanh, Cau Ong Lanh, Ban Co, Xuan Hoa, and Nhieu Loc wards for temporary parks and gardens, the Department has reviewed and identified 9 land plots that meet the conditions for implementation.

The land at 2-4-6 Hai Ba Trung Street in Saigon Ward will be used as a temporary park and flower garden for the Tet holiday.

Specifically, the land plot at 8 Vo Van Tan Street, Xuan Hoa Ward (Phan Dinh Phung Gymnasium Project); the land plots at 33 Nguyen Du Street, 34-36 and 42 Chu Manh Trinh Street, Saigon Ward; the land plot at 135 Nguyen Hue Street, Saigon Ward (Tax Department Store Project); the land plots at 87 Cong Quynh Street, 74 Ho Hao Hon Street and 289 Tran Hung Dao Street in Cau Ong Lanh Ward; the land plots at 2-4-6 Hai Ba Trung Street and 8-12 Le Duan Street in Saigon Ward; the quadrilateral area of ​​Le Thanh Ton - Nam Ky Khoi Nghia - Nguyen Trung Truc - Le Loi (SJC building); and the land plot at 152 Tran Phu Street, Cho Quan Ward (adjacent to Cau Ong Lanh Ward).

The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Agriculture and Environment stated that the implementation of this policy is being carried out through a socialized approach, with the land belonging to the Phan Dinh Phung stadium project being the first priority location for implementation.

“Using vacant land as temporary parks and gardens not only contributes to urban beautification and provides public spaces for people during Tet, but also helps to reduce the waste of land resources. Once all legal documents are completed, the land will be developed according to the approved plan,” a representative from the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Agriculture and Environment further shared.
