The awards ceremony for a contest to seek the best architectural ideas for the construction of the Viettel Da Nang building is set to take place in the city this month, according to a spokesperson for the Viet Nam Military Industry-Telecoms Group (Viettel).

The contest is open to domestic and foreign individuals and organisations that are architectural design consultants or construction planners.

The ‘Viettel Da Nang Building’ project will cover an area of 10,765m² on the A1-1 land lot on the northern side of the 2 September Peace Monument in Hoa Cuong Bac Ward, Hai Chau District.
