Vietnam’s Growing Appeal as a Luxury Destination

Vietnam continues to capture the attention of global investors and luxury tourists alike. The country's burgeoning economy, dynamic growth, and exceptional natural beauty make it a prime destination for high-end developments. One of the most exciting developments on the horizon is the US$1.5 billion Trump International Hung Yen, a luxury residential and golf complex that promises to transform the Red River Delta region into a premier tourism hotspot.

A Groundbreaking Ceremony with High Hopes

On May 21, 2025, a grand groundbreaking ceremony marked the beginning of this monumental project. In attendance were Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh and Eric Trump, Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization. The ceremony took place in Hung Yen province, signaling a major step in deepening the Vietnam-U.S. relationship and ushering in a new chapter in Vietnam’s tourism and luxury real estate sector.

The Trump International Hung Yen project, covering nearly 1,000 hectares, is set to include an extensive 54-hole golf course system, luxury resorts, high-end villas, a modern urban complex, and various amenities of international standards. This ambitious development will be the first in Vietnam under the Trump brand and is expected to create a lasting legacy for the region.

A Dream Development for Golf Enthusiasts and Luxury Travelers

At the heart of the project lies an impressive golf course system: three 18-hole golf courses, designed to offer a world-class experience for both international tourists and local residents. The sprawling course will cater to golf enthusiasts from around the world, promising challenging play on beautifully landscaped greens set amidst Vietnam’s serene countryside.

In addition to golf, the development will feature luxury resorts, high-end villas, and internationally standard amenities designed to appeal to the growing number of high-net-worth travelers seeking premium vacation experiences. The complex will blend modern urban design with eco-tourism elements, offering a balanced mix of opulence and sustainability.

The Economic and Cultural Impact of the Project

This major investment is not just about luxury and golf—it holds significant importance for the region’s economic development. Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh spoke at the groundbreaking event, underscoring how the project will help unlock the tourism potential of the Red River Delta. He emphasized the long-term benefits for Vietnam, including job creation, economic growth, and enhanced international partnerships.

“This project is not just an investment in infrastructure,” the Prime Minister said. “It is a commitment to making Vietnam a global destination for tourists and investors alike.” The luxury development is expected to improve the livelihoods of local residents, contributing to sustainable growth in Hung Yen and beyond.

Trump’s Vision for Vietnam’s Future

For Eric Trump, the project is a personal commitment to creating a lasting impact on Vietnam’s landscape. He highlighted Vietnam’s growing appeal as one of the most dynamic and promising markets in the world, saying, “Vietnam’s vision, vitality, and rapid growth make it an ideal destination for luxury developments like this.”

Trump also expressed his confidence that this development would not only enhance Vietnam’s tourism sector but would also bring a piece of the Trump legacy to the region. His commitment to completing the project in just over two years underscores the urgency and ambition of the development, aiming to make it one of the most prestigious golf destinations in the world.

A Vision for the Future

With the groundbreaking of Trump International Hung Yen, Vietnam is poised to solidify its position as a global luxury tourism destination. This project is not only a major investment in the country’s infrastructure but also a symbol of Vietnam’s growing international stature.

As construction begins, all eyes will be on the progress of the development, which is expected to be a game-changer for the region, attracting affluent tourists and contributing to the economic dynamism of Hung Yen province and the surrounding areas. In the years to come, the project is expected to become a landmark in the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between Vietnam and the United States, leaving an indelible mark on both countries.
