Luxury gold-plated villa worth hundreds of billions of Vietnamese stars

In early 2020, the audience was abuzz about Ly Nha Ky's anger when some people arbitrarily posted information about selling her hundred billion VND villa in Thanh My Loi ward, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City. This series of posts posted quite detailed information about the house such as: area 20 x 22m = 440 m^2,Structure: 1 ground floor, 4 upper floors, terrace, house address... with selling price of 118 billion VND. "Its value is not just 118 billion as the other Facebook account said", Ly Nha Ky revealed.

Ly Nha Ky’s magnificent villa is often listed for sale in this unreasonable way. With a prime location (near Kim Cuong Island, just a few dozen meters from the Saigon River), the businesswoman’s villa is like a castle.

From the outside, the villa is white, with many details crafted and sculpted with sophistication. The area around the villa is quite small, just enough to plant some ornamental plants and place two stone tables; but the swimming pool is quite large. The interior is dominated by yellow and white. The ceiling and walls inside Ly Nha Ky's house are beautifully gilded, the interior is in royal style. Ly Nha Ky lives alone in a villa of more than 400 square meters, and only hires a maid.

Outside the villa gate, there is a guard booth; the fence is nearly ten meters high, and is covered with security cameras. Occasionally, she hires someone to take care of the plants in and around the house.

Talking about "willingness to spend", the audience often mentions Miss Ngo My Uyen, with the title "The richest Miss Vietnam". Ngo My Uyen's old house is a famous gold-plated villa located on Han Thuyen Street, between Notre Dame Cathedral and Reunification Palace. At that time, the beauty bought it for more than 1,000 taels of gold from an old French villa and renovated it in three years. The renovation cost in the early 2000s was about 600 - 700 thousand USD.

As a house that specializes in entertaining friends in the art world; foreign friends and partners, Ngo My Uyen has renovated it to be extremely splendid; more than a thousand taels of gold were contributed by the beauty queen herself and her family. She once responded to Vietnamnet, talking about the rumor that the house was plated in gold: "When building the bathroom and swimming pool, I bought stone from Italy, and plated it with thin gold to keep the gold color beautiful and durable. The sauna (steam room) is lined with that stone and looks very beautiful, it is real gold but it is only interior decoration gold. The hanging lights in the living room are also Italian chandeliers, plated with 18k or 24k gold, shining brightly. I like to look at the house surrounded by gold."

However, she sold the house in early 2018 because no one lived there and no one looked after it. Ngo My Uyen's Italian husband rarely returned to Vietnam, the gold-plated villa was also left empty, if it continued, the house would deteriorate, so the beauty queen sold it for 7 million USD (about 162 billion VND).

However, she still owns another "gold-plated" villa in Thao Dien Ward, District 2, Ho Chi Minh City for her parents in Vietnam to live in. However, the female owner's mark on this villa is no different from the old house. Not only is all the furniture in the classic, royal European style, but the ceiling is also sprayed with shimmering gold.

Ngoc Son is also an artist on the list of gold-plated houses. The villa named Millennium is located on Suong Nguyet Anh Street, right in the center of Ho Chi Minh City. He himself does not remember the value of the house because it has been so long, while every year he renovates and buys more furniture. The most popular information is that the villa is worth 5 million USD (about 100 billion VND at that time).

Previously, Ngoc Son's villa caused a lot of discussion because of its many styles, a "mess" of East and West, ancient and modern, as well as many decorations that gave off a creepy, strange feeling. After replacing the white stone, the house is much brighter. The artist also spent a lot of money many times: billion-dollar lighting system, billion-dollar recording studio, 300 million VND table tennis court, to renovate the house. Notably, from the inside to the outside of the house, there are the owner's mark with gold and silver glitter. At the entrance of the house, Ngoc Son covered it with reliefs and teachings; the bedroom and living room ceilings are covered with eye-catching gold-plated dragons and angels.

Supermodel Lan Khue and her husband also moved to a luxurious riverside villa in 2018. Because they rarely show off their house, information and pictures of the villa are quite rare. During a cozy party to celebrate their wedding anniversary, Lan Khue and Tuan John accidentally revealed the space inside their villa.

Many viewers were amazed at how magnificent the villa was. The interior was very spacious, with white as the main color, many items and furniture, and sparkling gold-plated decorations. The area of ​​the villa was large enough for Tuan John to build a private cinema room for his wife. The audience commented that even though they knew that her supermodel husband had great financial potential, they were still amazed when they saw the splendid and luxurious living space inside the house.
