“…Gentrification was created in a Western context then went on to pervade widely elsewhere. In Asian countries, especially Vietnam, gentrification is a new concept and there is no exact translation or definition of it (Dao & Nguyen, 2018). For the cities of east Asia, the most common form of gentrification discussed in the academic literature is new-build gentrification, considered to be part of third-wave gentrification: examples have been discussed in Japan (Fujitsuka, 2005;Lutzeler, 2008), Singapore (Wong, 2006), South Korea (Kyung & Kim, 2011;Shin, 2007), and China (He, 2010).…”

This article describes gentrification around the Hue citadel in central Vietnam, which is now designated as World Heritage. Gentrification occurs across almost all urban areas and is taking place in Hue through the relocation of residents from the heritage area by the government in order to preserve cultural heritage against the pressures of urbanization. Based on qualitative methods with in-depth interviews and document analysis, this research article examines the initiation and evolution of the gentrification process in Hue, where the state takes the lead and follows four stages: (1) compensation, (2) resettlement, (3) displacement, and (4) renovation. Gentrification of the area brings positive outcomes for the urban façade and provides benefits for the city; on the other hand, it impacts neighborhoods and residents in many ways. Gentrification not only depends on the activities and directions of the state, but also requires and influences the consent of the people. Hence, gentrification is a complicated and endless process which causes many social conflicts. However, it is a Western concept, so it is necessary to investigate and develop it appropriately in the context of Vietnam, an Asian country. Keywords: Gentrification, World Heritage site, Strategy, Preservation, Hue citadel, Vietnam.

“…The first steps towards a more organized territory can be observed in the LULC map of 2000 (Figure 7): while the surrounding area seems to never change, Hanoi becomes even more compact. In this decade, the spatial structure of the city underwent a remarkable transformation, mainly due to the increasing value of the housing in the inner core of the city [51]. Rapid expansion of the periphery occurred regularly in the northeastern area (close to Lake Hò Tây [34]) and in the However, in 1989, the surrounding area was still a predominantly rural region: more than 70% of the study area was cultivated land, and rice paddies in the satellite image often appeared covered by water (over 6% of study area).…”

Rural–Urban Transition of Hanoi (Vietnam): Using Landsat Imagery to Map Its Recent Peri-Urbanization

The current trend towards global urbanization presents new environmental and social challenges. For this reason, it is increasingly important to monitor urban growth, mainly in those regions undergoing the fastest urbanization, such as Southeast Asia. Hanoi (Vietnam) is a rapidly growing medium-sized city: since new economic policies were introduced in 1986, this area has experienced a rapid demographic rise and radical socio-economic transformation. In this study, we aim to map not only the recent urban expansion of Hanoi, but also of its surroundings. For this reason, our study area consists of the districts within a 30km radius of the city center. To analyze the rural–urban dynamics, we identified three hypothetical rings from the center: the core (within a 10 km radius), the first ring (the area between 10 and 20 km) and, finally, the outer zone (over 20 km). To map land use/land cover (LULC) changes, we classified a miniseries of Landsat images, collected approximately every ten years (1989, 2000, 2010 and 2019). To better define the urban dynamics, we then applied the following spatial indexes: the rate of urban expansion, four landscape metrics (the number of patches, the edge length, the mean patch area and the largest patch index) and the landscape expansion index. The results show how much the city’s original shape has changed over the last thirty years: confined for hundreds of years in a limited space on the right bank of the Red River, it is now a fringed city which has developed beyond the river into the surrounding periurban areas. Moreover, the region around Hanoi is no longer solely rural: in just thirty years, urbanization has converted this territory into an industrial and commercial region.
