⛳ Thanh Lanh Valley Golf & Resort is an 18-hole Par 72 golf course in Thanh Lanh valley, Phu Tho (formerly Vinh Phuc), designed by Sir Nick Faldo. The course stands out with its lake landscape, Tam Dao mountains, European-style clubhouse, and resort golf experience highly suitable for golfers traveling from Hanoi or Noi Bai airport.
Thanh Lanh is a worthwhile choice if you want a round of golf with plenty of beautiful scenery for photos but still enough tactical challenge. Relatively wide fairways, deep bunkers, valley winds, and lakeside holes create a distinct playing feel compared to many golf courses around Hanoi.
Thanh Lanh Valley Golf & Resort is suitable for golfers who want to combine playing golf, relaxing, and taking a short trip in the Tam Dao - Dai Lai area.
Location of Thanh Lanh Valley Golf & Resort
The course is located in the Thanh Lanh area, Trung My commune (formerly Binh Xuyen), Phu Tho province (merged from Vinh Phuc), within the Thanh Lanh valley at the foot of the Tam Dao range. From central Hanoi, golfers usually take about 75 - 90 minutes traveling via Nhat Tan bridge, Noi Bai - Lao Cai expressway, and the connecting road to Binh Xuyen.
From Noi Bai International Airport, travel time is usually about 35 - 45 minutes depending on traffic. This is a great advantage for inbound groups arriving on morning flights, corporate groups organizing outings, or golfers who want to play one round and return to Hanoi within the day.
The major difference of Thanh Lanh lies in how Sir Nick Faldo utilized the lakes, mountainsides, and valley winds to create challenges.
Course design and architecture
Thanh Lanh Valley Golf & Resort was designed by Sir Nick Faldo and Faldo Design. The course features a championship resort course style, combining lakeside golf fairways, strategic bunkers, and greens that require golfers to read the terrain carefully.
The fairways at Thanh Lanh are quite wide at many holes, creating an open feel for driver shots. However, deep sand traps, lake areas, and swirling winds in the valley mean golfers cannot just hit far but need to choose a reasonable landing zone.
- Hole 4 Par 3: a shot over water to a green guarded by a bunker, one of the best views on the course.
- Hole 14 Par 3: a heart-shaped island green, both an accuracy challenge and a prominent check-in spot.
- Hole 18 Par 5: the finishing hole running along the lake, heading towards the European castle-style clubhouse.

Golf tips for Thanh Lanh
- Watch the wind on lakeside holes: valley winds can drift the ball more than it feels from the tee box.
- Don't be too greedy for the pin on Par 3s: holes 4 and 14 are beautiful but easy to lose balls if you choose too risky a club.
- Choose tees suitable for your handicap: average golfers should prioritize white or blue tees to maintain a good playing rhythm.
- Book early morning tee times: beautiful light, cool weather, and easier to get great photos with Tam Dao mountain mist.
- Bring extra balls: the beautiful water holes can make high-handicappers lose balls quickly.
- Consider Stay & Play: if going with a family or corporate group, staying in the Thanh Lanh - Tam Dao area makes the itinerary lighter.
