Saint Joseph’s Cathedral or the Big Church as it’s known locally, is located on 40 Nha Chung Street in Hoan Kiem District. A beautiful tree lined street leads you down to this impressive and slightly unusually placed cathedral. Vietnam is a predominately Buddhist country, so a large and imposing Notre-Dame style church in this busy city is surprising and feels quite out of place! This cathedral was built around 120 years ago, when the invading French army oppressed Hanoi. The church is open between 8AM and 5PM and entry is free. This is also a popular spot for Vietnamese couples to take their engagement and wedding photos, so it’s a nice place to watch the photoshoots for a while.
