Golden Land is the developer of the Golden City project, a luxury mixed-use development with an estimated gross floor area of approximately 3.0 million square feet in the Yankin township of Yangon, Myanmar.

Located in its vicinity are prestigious real estate and lifestyle amenities, including five-star hotels, fine dining, international schools, hospitals, embassies, and office headquarters of multinational corporations (e.g. Telenor, Unilever, MIC, LG, Petronas, Bangkok Bank, Keppel).

The development of this brownfield project has four distinct phases, with the initial two phases comprising residential blocks and the final two phases set aside for other uses including commercial space. As at 31 December 2019, the construction of the first two phases have been completed. The sales for the first two phases, commenced in 1Q2014 and 1H2015 respectively, are ongoing.
