Ninh Binh towards the model of "Duality City"

(PLVN) - Recently, at the Consultation Workshop on developing key industries - fields and products associated with reorganizing the development space of Ha Nam - Nam Dinh - Ninh Binh, Mr. Doan Minh Huan - Secretary of Ninh Binh Provincial Party Committee said: Ninh Binh is moving towards the model of "Duo Urban".

Ninh Binh is moving towards the "Dual Urban" model for sustainable and comprehensive development, not only as a satellite or counterpart to megacities like Hanoi or Hai Phong, but also playing a complementary role and making up for the shortcomings of these cities.

In the context of rapid urbanization across the country, many localities are having to choose between modernization or heritage preservation, between economic development or nature preservation. Ninh Binh - a land of talented people, where beautiful mountains and rivers and a thousand-year-old cultural heritage meet - has chosen a different direction: Development according to the "Duo Urban" model.

Ninh Binh - a land of talented people, where beautiful mountains and rivers meet and a thousand-year-old cultural heritage

This is not just a development slogan, but a strategic mindset: building a harmonious urban area between pairs of opposing values, to create a unique, sustainable and humane identity.

The concept of "Urban Duality"?

“Duality” is a philosophical and mathematical term, referring to two sides that exist in parallel and support each other. In urban planning, “Duality City” can be understood as a city that develops based on the balance and interaction between seemingly contradictory pairs of values: tradition – modernity, conservation – development, nature – artificiality, culture – technology, etc.

Instead of choosing one side and excluding the other, the “Duality City” accepts and integrates both, creating a structure of a flexible, rich and profound City.

Reality shows: Ninh Binh - the land of dual values ​​between Heritage and Modernity: Ninh Binh is home to the Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex - the first dual heritage of Vietnam. But at the same time, the province is also developing new urban areas such as Dong Thanh, Tay Nam city, regional traffic infrastructure...

Ninh Binh is famous for its limestone mountains, caves, flooded forests, rivers... But it is also the place where large religious and architectural works such as Bai Dinh Pagoda, Phat Diem Stone Church, and small-scale industrial zones are developed.

In terms of tourism, Ninh Binh considers tourism a key industry, especially eco-tourism, culture, and spirituality. Along with that, Ninh Binh also promotes light industry, automobile production (TC Motor), garment, and food processing.

Tradition and Digital Transformation: The cultural identity of the ancient capital Hoa Lu is preserved through festivals and folk arts. At the same time, the province focuses on implementing digital government, smart tourism, and digital infrastructure to serve people and businesses.

With Ninh Binh's momentum, position, vision and new development approach, many experts believe that Ninh Binh will become a Dragon of the region in the future.

Building a “Duo Urban” model with Ninh Binh to create a distinct urban identity: Not confused with Hanoi, not competing directly with other industrialized cities, Ninh Binh takes its own path – attracting both tourists and investors. Promoting local values ​​while absorbing global quintessence.

Ninh Binh not only builds a development model for itself, but can also become a national pilot for harmonious urbanization. The “Duo Urban” model, if successful, will be a model for many other localities to learn from – especially in the context that Vietnam needs cities that are not only modern, but also have soul, depth, and long-term vision.
