Location

Landmark tower was build at center of Vinhomes Central Park, next to Saigon river, detail address for who want to visit: 720A Dien Bien Phu St, 22 Ward, Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City.

Architecture

Landmark 81 has bamboo bunch architecture, symbolizes strength, solidarity and the spirit rise of Vietnamese people. The building are covered by Low – E glass with functions is transmitted light, regulate the heat,especially the ability to prevent ultraviolet radiation, help for inside the well-lit buildings but still ensure the temperature cool.



New symbol

I read news and magazine, many post Landmark 81 become new symbol of Saigon, I heard this thing when Bitexco tower opened in 2010, maybe they take the heigh of tower to make the symbol of Saigon. If in the future, have another tower taller than Landmark 81, it will become new symbol of Saigon and Landmark 81 also like Bitexco going into oblivion.
I want to say that: why we don't have specific symbol? like when you say about New York, you'll think about The Statue of Liberty, Paris you will think Eiffel Tower or Sydney you will think Sydney Opera House... It's a questions for the Government!
