Landmark 72
Building Tallest skyscraper in Hanoi, mixed-use commercial tower
Hanoi’s Landmark 72 skyscraper dominates Nam Từ Liêm skyline; visitors use its observation deck, stay in high‑rise hotels and visit shopping malls and business centers in the Keangnam complex.
Landmark 72 is a mixed-use skyscraper complex on the western edge of Hanoi in the Nam Tf9 Lim district and was built as one of the city’s dominant high-rise developments. It is notable for its 72 above-ground floors and for housing offices, residences, hotel accommodation and retail space.
The complex includes a tall central tower with office space, serviced apartments and hotel facilities, plus a multi-level retail podium and conference areas. Upper floors provide panoramic views across Hanoi and to surrounding districts, and the site functions as a business and commercial centre on the city’s western corridor.
The tower was developed as a major urban project in the late 2000s and early 2010s to provide mixed commercial and residential capacity on Hanoi’s expanding western fringe. Construction marked a phase of rapid high-rise development outside the historic core of the city.
The complex sits in Nam Tf9 Lim district near the Mfd 10ecnh area, on the western side of Hanoi rather than the old city centre. It is accessible from major arterial roads that connect the site to the rest of the capital.
- Height and floors: The tower stands with 72 floors and is one of Hanoi's tallest buildings, combining office, residential and hotel functions.
- Location note: Located on the western edge of central Hanoi, the complex sits near the Mfd 10ecnh neighbourhood and major transport routes.
