The city is planned in the area of 375 hectares along the river Ku De and includes many organized groups of areas. “The plan takes into account the critical level of flood threat region, with a series of special structures to protect against storms. The master plan also includes SOM eco-Park that allows you to protect and increase the habitat of wild animals along the river Bank in 2.7 km. This Park system assists in flood control, preventing rainwater infiltration in the area. Instead, it is filtered and collected in a special channels for further irrigation farms” Comment experts from SOM.
