The museum will be built in the territory of three communes Liep Tuyet, Ngoc My, and Ngoc Liep, Quoc Oai district, Hanoi.

Occupying in a spacious area of 38.28 hectares, the new museum will feature a multi-purposed displaying and studying area; a reception-cum-exhibition hall; a service area; a research center and office space; a specimen processing and technical zone, and a mini forest of the evergreen plant.

The approval of the project’s detailed plan will be the basis to call for investment. The city’s ambition is to build a premier Nature Museum with modern facilities and technical infrastructure in Vietnam, according to Hanoi’s authorities.

The museum will perform the functions of a great nature museum, fulfilling the mission of preserving cultural heritage, doing scientific research, educating science, and serving the community's interests.
