Ba Đình [ɓaː˧˧:ɗï̤ŋ˨˩] is award ofHanoi the capital city in theRed River Delta ofVietnam.[3]
Its nameBa Đình is suggested directly from theformer district to preserve and promote the cultural values as well as the history of this administrative unit.[1]
After the entire large area ofHà Tây Province was merged inHà Nội City in August 1, 2008, along with a number of small lands of two provincesHòa Bình andVĩnh Phúc, the important political agencies of theGovernment of Vietnam have gradually moved to newly establishedurban districts in the west of the city. This move has been said that in the policy[note 2] of reducing the cause oftraffic congestion, and at the same time, facilitating development for poor localities in the west of the capital.[4][5] According to this project, after the system of agencies has been transferred to another places, the entire Ba Đình District will enter the restoration phase for architectural works that have been degraded for many different reasons.[6][7] Therefore, until the early 2020s, except for thePresidential Palace andGovernment Guest Hall where were still used for ritual and diplomatic activities, almost the space of Ba Đình District has been converted to purposes ofculture,education, and especiallytourism.
In April 29, 2025, to meet the urgent needs of theproject for re-organising and merging administrative units by theNational Assembly Standing Committee of Vietnam, the Hanoi City People's Council agreed to approve Resolution 19/NQ-HĐND on approving the policy of arranging the commune-level administrative unit of Hanoi City.[8]
