Notre Dame Catherdal of Saigon
Notre Dame Cathedral of Saigon is one of the top tourist spots in Ho Chi Minh City. Built between 1863 to 1880 by French engineer Jules Bourard, this French guy had high trust in French products because most of the construction materials were imported from France, including bricks and stones. The architect initially named it the Church of Saigon.
The impression of this church is a mix of church design between Roman and Gothic styles. The locals know this church for having the biggest pair of bells in Vietnam.
Located in the central city of Ho Chi Minh, this church is not just for worshippers but also for the tourist to admire its beauty, as I do. Notre Dame Cathedral can host around 1,200 people; therefore, its the largest church in Ho Chi Minh.
Address: 01 Công xã Paris, Bến Nghé, Quận 1, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh 70000, Vietnam

Location : Notre Dame Cathedral of Saigon 粉红教堂⛪️位于越南胡志明市中心,是一座天主教教堂,整座楼都刷上粉红漆。是打卡地点之一。
It is being renovated here, not open to the outside world, you can only feel the atmosphere on the periphery. Church, if you have seen those in Italy, this can only be regarded as a small scum, after all, it has not been so long precipitation. It is good to just use it as a witness to a history.
Probably the most noteworthy monument in Saigon, built in 1880. It keeps its French style architecture of that time. Definitely a must visit during traveling around the city.
Very beautiful place, full of exotic style, looking forward to the next trip
really nice cathedral in the city center of Saigon! unfortunately not possible to go inside but for sure a mandatory place to visit
it was still under renovation works during my September 2023 visit. half of the exterior renovations look completed. Not worth visiting at the moment
