Nhà thờ lớn Hà Nội

Hanoi Cathedral is one of the architectural works designed in classical European style that still retains its quintessential architectural beauty to this day. And Hanoi Cathedral is also one of the ancient architectural works that hides its beautiful beauty, unique features and has become a symbol of Hanoi's thousand years of civilization. Hanoi Cathedral was built on a plot of land that had previously built a Bao Thien pagoda. However, due to many ups and downs, that temple was abandoned. In 1873, after the first French invasion of the capital, the abandoned Bao Thien Pagoda was handed over by the French to Bishop Puginier. This bishop built a few temporary wooden houses for work. Experiencing many ups and downs of history, Hanoi Cathedral is considered a "witness" witnessing the "change of flesh" of Hanoi during the past 3 centuries. Currently, there are many modern buildings growing up, but the cathedral is still one of the architectural works that has made a distinct impression in the hearts of Hanoians and tourists alike.
