Notably, it also serves as a cultural bridge, bringing traditional Vietnamese art closer to the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking on KDI\u2019s dedication, Mr. Jean Michel Puiff, Director of the National Theater of S\u00e9nart (France), shared that this is the first modern theater built in Vietnam that meets European theater standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i1-vnexpress.vnecdn.net\/2025\/10\/15\/03-image1-PC-1760526103-9119-1760527212.jpg?w=0&amp;h=0&amp;q=100&amp;dpr=1&amp;fit=crop&amp;s=4jO6GLpbaojgScVuxZxbnw\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Building on the success of the Do Theater, in early September, KDI Group unveiled another symbolic structure &#8211; the <strong>Bronze Drum Square<\/strong>, located within the international township Libera Nha Trang, at the heart of the La Tien Villa precinct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The square is distinguished by a monumental 20-meter-tall Vietnamese bronze drum structure. It also showcases eight iconic traditional Vietnamese musical instruments, including the khen, dan day, dan bau, T\u2019r\u01b0ng, dan nhi, dan nguyet, gong, and the Khmer pentatonic ensemble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This destination is expected to become a venue for major cultural and artistic events in Vietnam and beyond, contributing to Nha Trang\u2019s (Khanh Hoa) tourism appeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ms. Nguyen Hai Tam, CEO of KDI Group, shared that the square is one of the architectural highlights of La Tien Villa, located within the 44 hectare Libera Nha Trang development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i1-vnexpress.vnecdn.net\/2025\/10\/15\/04-image2-PC-1760526170-3842-1760527212.jpg?w=0&amp;h=0&amp;q=100&amp;dpr=1&amp;fit=crop&amp;s=pVSUE1EmuOFdB6PGl8kdWA\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i1-vnexpress.vnecdn.net\/2025\/10\/15\/05-SubTitle2-PC-1760526144-6402-1760527212.jpg?w=0&amp;h=0&amp;q=100&amp;dpr=1&amp;fit=crop&amp;s=ne1Tgh30BhBr-mqFeEBd-Q\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To bring traditional culture into harmony with contemporary life, KDI Group focuses not only on creating structures to admire, but also on creating immersive experiences. For example, the <strong>\u201cRoi Mo\u201d Show<\/strong> at the Do Theater is performed regularly, blending traditional water puppetry with modern puppetry, accompanied by creatively orchestrated Vietnamese folk music. The <strong>\u201cChum Show\u201d<\/strong>, inspired by the cultures of the Cham, Central Highlands, and Kinh people, reflects the cycle of birth \u2013 death \u2013 rebirth through the symbolic image of the ceramic jar, connecting heritage and humanity. Both shows convey the contemporary spirit of Vietnamese performing arts, offering visitors diverse cultural experiences when visiting Nha Trang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notably, <strong>Roi Mo<\/strong> has achieved significant international recognition. It was honored by Entrepreneur magazine as one of the \u201cWorld\u2019s Most Unique and Captivating Shows,\u201d and ranks No. 1 in the \u201cTheater &amp; Art Performances in Nha Trang\u201d category on TripAdvisor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i1-vnexpress.vnecdn.net\/2025\/10\/15\/06-image3-PC-1760526302-2897-1760527212.jpg?w=0&amp;h=0&amp;q=100&amp;dpr=1&amp;fit=crop&amp;s=Yip_6YwEWilxlcT3uR-4gw\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Bronze Drum Square has also been designed as a cultural hub, providing locals with a communal space while offering international visitors a deeper understanding of Vietnamese identity.

Squares, theaters, and museums not only preserve heritage but also drive tourism, services, and real estate growth. This approach demands financial resources, long-term vision, and determination from developers, but it produces distinct and lasting cultural landmarks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The launch of the Bronze Drum Square marks the beginning of a series of initiatives linking real estate with local cultural values, reinforcing KDI Group\u2019 commitment to creating vibrant, culturally rich urban spaces in Nha Trang. The group believes that heritage preservation must go hand in hand with urban vitality, aligning with the development and integration of Nha Trang and Vietnam as a whole. While challenging, this approach ensures enduring value for projects, communities, and the nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i1-vnexpress.vnecdn.net\/2025\/10\/15\/08-image5-PC-1760526552-2442-1760527212.jpg?w=0&amp;h=0&amp;q=100&amp;dpr=1&amp;fit=crop&amp;s=GMHADfK3vp7O20Q4WprwcQ\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to KDI Group, the company has made significant investments and poured great dedication into its designs, drawing inspiration from familiar Vietnamese cultural symbols such as the fish trap and the bronze drum.
