200 tons of steel used to create kite-shape dome at expanded APEC Park
The Ha Giang- Phuoc Tuong Mechanical Joint Stock Company is gearing up to use nearly 200 tons of steel to create a kite-shaped dome to be placed at the expanded APEC Park. This item is built based on the idea entitled "Da Nang – High Flying Kite " developed by the Green City Consulting and Designing Construction Limited Company that won the first prize at a competition to seek planning and design ideas for the expanded APEC Park.

The 8,668m2 expanded area is bounded by extended Bach Dang Street to the east, 2 September Street to the west, Binh Minh 4 Street to the south, and the existing APEC Park to the north.
Located in Binh Hien Ward, Hai Chau District, the new development will comprise a public park, a stroll garden associated with an existing sculpture garden, a main stage, a water fountain, a stage for organising cultural events, a playground for children, green areas, a parking space, and underground public toilets.
The highlight of the expanded APEC Park is the kite-shaped dome inspired from the idea of ‘High Flying Kite’, and nearly 200 tons of steel are used to create this item by the Ha Giang- Phuoc Tuong Mechanical Joint Stock Company.
The idea of ‘High Flying Kite’ reflects the changing face of Da Nang and affirms Da Nang’s role as dynamic city in Central Viet Nam as well as presents key role of Da Nang in driving the growth of the region.
‘High Flying Kite’ idea presents the role Da Nang plays as a driver of the regional economy. The kite is not only a reminder of childhood but also shows Da Nang’s dreams and ambitions of its high flying future.

Steel fabrication in the Ha Giang- Phuoc Tuong Mechanical Joint Stock Company is now underway. |
Spray painting aims to prevent rust from occurring on the structure before applying the finish coats to create a dome with high aesthetics. |
With rich experience in manufacturing and installing steel structures, especially those with complex shapes and high aesthetic requirements, the Ha Giang- Phuoc Tuong Mechanical Joint Stock Company is committed to completing the dome on schedule, creating a special highlight of the expanded APEC Park. |
