Scenic Lang Co Bay resorts, villas abandoned for years

The Lang Co Bay, considered to be among the world's most beautiful bays, has seen several tourism projects being approved for construction over many years.

Pictured above is the Minh Vien international resort, spanning 102 ha and with the Minh Vien company being its main investor. The project costs $368 million and includes several infrastructures, such as hotels and conference centers.

The project began construction in 2018 and is expected to be completed within the first quarter of this year. Some of its structures have already gone into operation since 2019. However, most of its infrastructure is incomplete and abandoned.

Inside an abandoned conference center, much debris can be found.

Several quadbikes are left abandoned at the site, degrading over time.

A functional facility is now abandoned, water flooding the area. Behind it lays several villas still in mid-construction, invaded by plant life.

Locals raise cattle amid the abandoned coastal resorts.

A row of houses at the resort have been partially completed, with ornamental ponds outside full of algae.

The insides of the unfinished resort facilities have furniture lying around.

Dozens of abandoned villas lie next to the Lang Co coastal road. The area has been barricaded.

Another resort site has multiple abandoned structures and plant overgrowth.

The main entrance of a resort site has been barricaded, but there are no guards at the site.

The ThuaThien-Hue Industrial Economic Zone management board said the resort project was abandoned due to capital difficulties. The board is contacting the project's investor to urge them to resume the project.
