that looks confuse ^^

Yeah i really dont understand this picture.

^^It's hard to see, and understand....;)

Sorry about the quality of the map

This is an initial proposal of the project and there is no much details related to this project

I guess the green section in the map is dedicated to parks and other recreation facilities. The yellow section is for residential developments :)

Let's look at some of the proposal :)

Wow Wonderful Designs!!! This is amazing....Love it all :D
by the way, I understand the map. However, It's a huge project. Ppl is living in Those areas. How can they start this project???
SeeMacau, do u have any more detail??

Thank for sharing....Good luck to u :)

yeah this project is realy huge and nice I like the Khmer architecture

Holy COWW! You gotta be serious!!!! That project is better than any project in PP! Looks like it's between 60-70 plus stories high! My dream of PP to look like NYC will come true one day! :cheers::cheers::cheers:

Does this project include everything in the color area ? If so, it's 10 times bigger than Phnom Penh.

Dude even the whole entire layout of the City is based the layout of Angkor! I like I like!!! :cheers::cheers::cheers:

This project can cost 5-10 billion dollars!

Guys.. Screw that 555 meter building we got this haahahahahahaha!!

PP will look like New York by 2025!! :eek2:

Khmers are masters of urban planning! Hey we did built the largest pre-industrial city in the world! :banana2::banana2:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/archive/f/fe/20050927110949!Angkor_satellite_with_map.jpg

This project not surprise me at all, because it's impossible project....!

The peoples who designed this project... I think they are really designers they did it to show their skill...to attract their customer.

Anyways I like their job...really good job, spacially khmer style.

PP will look like New York by 2025!! :eek2:

I hope not

Wow! The buildings are really uniquely designed. I like it a lot! This will probably put Phnom Penh on the map or at least I hope so. :)

Wow.. That look very nice design, it awesome. I love this mixed traditional n modern style of building. Esp proposal six, 5 tower like Angkor wat too. SM, do u know which company this project belong to? Anyway hope it is true one.

SeeMacau...Dude! this is an awsome project but when are they going to release the project information. I hope the dragon city project and the 555 meters skyscraper project starts around the same time. Dragon city sounds like a chinese city or china town. If you look at the map it's going to be the largest project for Cambodia. Projects like this is not going to happen anytime soon.
If you have anymore detail please let us know. Thanks for all of these photos and all the projects looks really nice. I hope the best for Cambodia

This project will be real soon! Long ago they been wanting to build a city that Mirror's that of the city Angkor! The Bayon Tower I talked about could be in this project! :cheers::cheers:

I just realized, if you look NE of Phnom Penh on Google maps, Dragon City will be about 2x larger than where the current city is today. It's really easy to spot where the proposed construction site will be; just follow the shape of the rivers. :)

Looking nice on model.

All i could say it...WOW...BTW, the desing is all Angkor Wat Style......I Love It....:D
:cheer::cheer::cheer:

Thank SM. WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH!YOU ARE THE ONE WE NEED THE MOST.
I love that project so much. It is so huge. the style of the building are showing Khmer culture. I am so proud of khmer kids that are capable to design them.
PROUD TO BE KHMER.
PEACE FOR CAMBODIA.:cheers::cheers:

Holy COWW! You gotta be serious!!!! That project is better than any project in PP! Looks like it's between 60-70 plus stories high! My dream of PP to look like NYC will come true one day! :cheers::cheers::cheers:

More like an nightmare, NYC has 20million people.

Maybe Sydney metro (or similar) is what Phnom Penh should aim at.

We can keep building, but if we believe we can fill these new cities up, is about time to upgrade or build a new/2nd international airport.

The name should be called Angkor city not Dragon city it sounds too foreign! :bash::bash::bash:

This project is awesome. The design 6 show more the identity and culture of Cambodia than the others. :)

The total area is 20 times bigger than Phnom Penh at less. How much is estimated the number of the population of this city ? 5 millions of people/buyers ?

Who will live there (%Cambodian, %foreigners?) ?

How does it cost to maintain the city ? public transportation ? road ? sewer ? electricty ? water supply ? Education / hospital / administration ... Who will pay all of this each year ?

This project seems to be very big.

A project city for 100.000 people is already big but possible. But if this area will have only 100.000 people, So, why a so big area ? PP area is 20 times less and have about 2 millions inhabitants.

I'm little confused.

WOW...all of those questions are hard to answer.....:)

It is good to hear someone taking concern with all these problems before the project is going ahead.

This is only a proposal. Everything has to be adjust based on the market conditons.

The name should be called Angkor city not Dragon city it sounds too foreign! :bash::bash::bash:

This is up to the ''private'' developer undertaking the project :)

Thanks everyone, anymore details I will let you guys know :)

Just one small project such as....BKK lake, Koh Pich, Borey Keyla...!!!!!
They take so long time to remove peoples from the deverloping area, so you all should look at this project carefully then you all will know HOW COME!?

You know that proposal for deverloping area have 100,000+++ family living there!!! Who rich to pay for that..somemore they are got farm land too , not only house.

But if these project build...example:

Project 1 build at Chroy Changva
project 2 build at Ta Khmao
.....!.....! or somewhere !!!
Maybe it possible.

too much Families lost their home and land I hope this project didn´t build in a area with much Families

Wow Wonderful Designs!!! This is amazing....Love it all :D
by the way, I understand the map. However, It's a huge project. Ppl is living in Those areas. How can they start this project???
SeeMacau, do u have any more detail??

Thank for sharing....Good luck to u :)

by kicking those people thats how

Man, I have at least a few hactas of land in this dragon city map and they're better not steal my land or i'm going to kick their balls.

Me too, if I have got land there :lol:

And I will ask for market price or I will :bash:

This city was proposed by Prime Minister few months ago. They want to follow Putra Jaya in Malaysia fro what I assumed. It will take as long as Putra Jaya did.

i think it's not real.

I wouldn't mind, if they relocate them to another better place n give them the appropriate amount of money. As I've seen, some ppl has been relocated to live in a small n remote communities. This isn't right to me. I hope they will consider this 1 properly base on mutual respect...
Win win strategy :)

Great if this project can b real and even better if they can avoid any relocation :)

I have a feeling that this dragon city project is like that sunwah project. You're not going to see this project progress anytime soon it's just a proposal might not going to happen because this whole project is bigger than one province. To accomplished this whole project is going to take 20-30 years to be done, don't you think?

I hope this project is not real. It is too big and I think it is useless. What would happen to all the people living on these lands already? They should just stick to skyscrapers and tall buildings in Phnom Penh. :ohno::ohno::ohno:

I don't see any consistency between the land on the map and the proposals. Those buildings are nice, but they don't need that BIG land. If they do, how many people are going to live there? It is a size of a 10 millions and more city. It is not going to happen in my lifetime, at least.

SeeMacau, where on the map would the selected proposed building would be build?

It seems like every Cambodian I know owns land in Cambodia :)

Everyone want to get rich from buying lots of lands :cheers:

Me too, if I have got land there :lol:

And I will ask for market price or I will :bash:

Dont ever expect to get a market price if the developer wants to evict you :ohno:

The developer will build a lot of townhouses and units other than skyscrapers.

I have no idea .. these are just initial proposals and things can be different

Dont ever expect to get a market price if the developer wants to evict you :ohno:

If that land belong to my family since 1979 or 1980 sure we will fight for it.:)

But some land in p-penh like BK lake or Borey Keyla...yes it's hard to get the market price because most of that peoples living there around year 1990s.:nuts:

WOW those are some really good looking proposal that i have ever seen will probably cost over 10 bills to build. i like number 7 it looks the best imo

They probably build many town house and to attract people to thier project by showing many skyscraper.

ugh i really dont like this project
very overscaled, all about prestige it seems..
and be honest.. those models are very ugly.. the colours.. the style...

It is for now a proposal.

Firstly, I thought the idea to make a building with the architecture of Angkor is good (proposal 6), even an excellent idea, a big challenge. But in this case, it should have a mainspring, be rationale. We shouldn't use the symbol of the country just to make a beautiful building. No, it should have a good reason.
Secondly, the material of the main building seems to be coarse, according to the photo. It could be improve. The building should be refined and more modern material and design. It is the symbol of Cambodia. It have to be excellent quality, not low or middle quality.

But I make a mistake, the other building are not represented a symbol of Cambodia, so I don't know. If they want use another quality... why not but the main building represent often the value of the project.

''Overscale'' is the only word I can describe with this project ..

^^ Sure, overscale is one of the big problem.

I don't think it's over scale! It's good that they are building tall Skyscrapers not just in the main city but on the outskirts! PM Hun Sen wants to make his city like New York because I heard after he visit New York he said that he was inspired by the city so he wants it he got it!

I don't mean to be too negative about this project, but I share some of the views expressed here by some. While this project has existed in my head for a long time, I still think this is university architectural student project. It is a brilliant concept nonetherless. If it turns out to be a real project, it will definitely turns Phnom Penh into a major regional tourism magnet rivaling Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur. The layout for this porject would perfectly consist of the following:

1. The upper floors of the central tower reserved for office building or condominiums.
2. The outer and shorter towers reserved for condominiums.
3. The spokes and the bases of the towers reserved for retail (mall)

so what happened to this project?...it is a real project?

so what happened to this project?...it is a real project?

Up until now, no one knows ..

Yes, this project is created by architectural students from university.

^^ Sure, overscale is one of the big problem.

Unfortunately many pojects in Phnom Penh are ''overscaled'', satellite cities for example Grand PP International City and Camko City belongs to this category.

Prices of the units / supplies doesnt really match the affordability level of many local Cambodians, this is the other problem.

Yes, this project is created by architectural students from university.

Students need skills before to engage in a big project. Especially, with a so big proposal ! Or they must be manage by a senior.

Make big buildings and towers need skills. Make an urbanism plan for the whole city need to meet a lot of problems and solve correctly them. After, students become professinal and can anticipate the problem when they design a building.

Camko City is raisonnable in comparaison with this project. It is smaller than the Phnom Penh and it bring a real value for the future "A financial district" and "a new style of life" more modern. It offers for expat and local a place where to stay close to their standard level of living.

so what happened to this project?...it is a real project?

Yes, I wonder too.

Yes, this project is created by architectural students from university.

^^^^I think so, this was created by architectural students. very simple, all you guys just take a look to the design of buildings which are very low design and not like professional design.:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Up until now, no one knows ..

Oh, I see...so this is just one of those project that make me happy...:ohno:...and you never going to see it happens...:(

Yes, I wonder too.

I really hope this project do start soon...:)

Holy crab! So it is not a real project. What a waste of time viewing this thread?
SeeMacau I hope next time you're going to post a real project or going to be a real project not a school project that created by architectural students.

Time Out

Who said it is not real??
Read the following

This city was proposed by Prime Minister few months ago. They want to follow Putra Jaya in Malaysia fro what I assumed. It will take as long as Putra Jaya did.

I assume this project will be continue (50% chance) ..

I wonder if it is pertinent to give to students the biggest project of Cambodia in real estate ? :hm:

I absolutely agreed with SeeMacao. It is 50% chance to be real project because it was proposed by PM. I have seen news in Tv about this project few months ago. They are looking for developer. Or perhaps they found the developer..... Who knows. :)

Keep hoping for this project...
It looks unreal, but it is still achievable :)

^^I cross my finger....:)

This project will never exist IMO. It wil take over 100 years to finish and cost A LOT

i love the proposal 4 and six, very Khmer :D
