Phu An Bamboo Village is situated in a location that is quite easy to find and access, just over 35km from the center of Ho Chi Minh City. Renowned as a “green tourism destination,” the bamboo village impresses with its traditional beauty that stands the test of time. Despite the rapid changes in the outside world, this place remains slow-moving, gradually evolving into the first and largest green bamboo conservation area in Vietnam.

The purpose of developing Phu An Bamboo Village is scientific research on bamboo collection and conservation, creating environmentally friendly products from bamboo, and enhancing Vietnamese bamboo's value in response to climate change.

Phu An Village is a project for the ecological conservation of bamboo genetic resources and vegetation along the Saigon River of Binh Duong province and the Southeastern region. This project was formed from the scientific idea of Dr. Diep Thi My Hanh, lecturer at the University of Natural Sciences under Vietnam National University-Ho Chi Minh City since 1999. After more than 20 years, Phu An Bamboo Village has become an ideal destination, contributing to educating the love of nature and protecting the ecological environment to the young generation.

This pioneering project has brought tangible economic rewards to the Phu An community, whose members are trained in the production of artisanal bamboo handicrafts. A total of 3,000 families have benefitted from the village, and out-migration from the area to the urban center has reduced significantly.

The village is divided into two separate areas, including the bamboo museum and the research area. Currently, it has about 1,500 bamboo bushes with more than 300 forms of bamboo belonging to 17 varieties, accounting for nearly 90% of bamboo varieties in Vietnam.

Therefore, this place is also directly supporting scientists and student groups to carry out research and conservation of bamboo genetic resources and vegetation systems along the Saigon River. It is currently an ideal destination for an ecological garden model.
