A resort in Hanoi is attracting many visitors thanks to the two statues of North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un and US President Donald Trump.   

Hanoi Paragon Hill in Ba Vi District is attracting visitors wanting photos with the statues of the North Korean and US leaders as the Kim-Trump summit is nearing. 

Nguyen Duc Phuong, manager of the resort, said that the life-size statues were built in April 2017 amid the heightened tension between North Korea and the United States after North Korea conducted a series of missile and nuclear tests. The statutes were aimed to express Phuong’s expectation for world peace. The works were finished within two months. 








Dinh Thi Kim, from Ba Vi District, said that she was surprised to see the statues at the resort. 


Trump’s statue is 1.88 metres high


Kim’s statue is 1.70 metres 



Many people are interested in posing by the statues which are made from cement
