Many cities in the world such as Moscow, Berlin, Paris, Tokyo, London, Seoul have built and exploited effectively many urban underground space and make profit from it while the one in Hanoi remains untapped potential.

In those cities, the underground space houses trade and service centers and parking lots, contributing to reducing congestion.

According to experts, if being used effectively, underground space in big cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh city would bring large amounts of money for the state budget.  

Together with the advancement of science and technology, underground spaces in separate building could be linked to each other to be better exploited.  

Therefore, underground space and ground surface should be harmoniously developed in the overall three-dimensional urban space to create a synchronous, modern and comfortable urban space.
