Ancient Northern Vietnamese Architecture in Ninh Bình
Emeralda Resort consists of two areas with different architectural styles. Emeralda Resort Ninh Bình follows the design of Northern Vietnamese rural villages, while Emeralda Resort Tam Cốc is inspired by the design of ancient mansions.
With a space rich in Northern Vietnamese culture, the resort provides guests with a fully equipped yet traditional and distinctive experience. Emeralda Resort Ninh Bình includes traditional three-room houses with tiled roofs, intricately carved wooden beams, and red brick floors, offering guests a sense of tradition.
This green village is located next to the Vân Long Wetland Nature Reserve, highlighting each hamlet's aesthetic quality and the refined elegance of Northern Vietnamese nobility.
The reception area is designed to resemble the village communal house with steeply curved red tile roofs, straw-yellow paint, substantial ironwood columns, intricate carvings on the wooden beams, and neatly arranged earthen jars.
The ancient village communal house was a place where villagers gathered, shared, and organized cultural activities. This concept inspired Emeralda Resort's reception design. Outside, the resort management has planted many ancient trees, lotus ponds, and a spacious yard.
The 172 spacious bungalows at Emeralda Resort Ninh Bình are designed like traditional three-room houses, featuring sturdy wooden columns and rustic wooden door latches. The rooms are divided into hamlets, simulating ancient Northern Vietnamese villages.
"Each small hamlet is surrounded by grapefruit and starfruit gardens. The garden is adorned with hibiscus, bougainvillea, and camellia bushes," a representative of Emeralda shared.
Emeralda Resort Tam Cốc, which opened in 2023, is the next milestone for the Emeralda brand, aiming to promote Vietnamese architecture in each product. The resort is inspired by ancient Northern Vietnamese mansions.
The resort is divided into two areas: island and peninsula, with a total of 86 rooms, including Superior, Deluxe, Premium Deluxe, and Imperial categories. The design is harmonious and balanced, with wooden furniture. The resort is also decorated with sets of four-panel paintings, flower vases, and premium blue enamel tea sets, allowing guests to immerse themselves in a luxurious yet elegant lifestyle.
The rooms at Emeralda Resort Tam Cốc draw design inspiration from traditional five-room and seven-room houses with high wooden ceilings, intricate carvings, and solid pillars, reflecting the owner's status during the feudal period.
