About Thu Thiem

Thu Thiem is Ho Chi Minh City's most ambitious urban development project, located directly across the Saigon River from District 1. Connected by the Thu Thiem Bridge and Thu Thiem 2 Bridge, this area is being built as a modern financial and residential hub. Apartment buildings here are brand new with state-of-the-art facilities — Metropole Thu Thiem, Empire City, and The River are among the flagship developments. Expect modern design, river views, and competitive rents compared to District 1. The area is still developing, so some local amenities are limited, but the proximity to both District 1 and Thao Dien makes it increasingly popular with expats.
