The Waste Recycling Garden NNC was established based on the idea of a 62-year-old woman, Ms. Nguyen Thi Thanh Nga, who is the Chairwoman of the Nguyen Nga Disability Branch. This idea originated from her deep appreciation and gratitude towards her friends working in the tourism industry in Australia.
After almost two years, the desolate hill of approximately 2,000 square meters has been transformed into a recycling garden, prolonging the beneficial life cycle of diverse waste materials. Presently, the garden is drawing a considerable number of tourists and students from both local and international regions who visit to learn, explore, and share inspiring narratives while collaborating to protect the environment and combat plastic waste.
