The monastery itself is not as tall as the church, but its color, architectural style, and stone walls are quite distinctive. In addition to taking care of the disadvantaged, the monastery itself even has a small connection with Emperor Bao Dai and Queen Nanfang.

It is recommended to choose an angle with good lighting and start in a place with few people. If it is in front of the church or on the stairs, you may have to wait for a while. It is important to think about how to pose in advance. There is a door on the right rear of the monastery that leads to the garden. It is always open at 14:00, but sometimes it is not so punctual! If it is open, you will find the flower garden as you walk in. The overall color is more pink and gorgeous than the appearance.

Initially, this place was the main monastery for more than 50 nuns who participated in social activities. For example, opening kindergartens, orphanages, etc. However, so far, major religious groups have moved to Ho Chi Minh City. The church has always implemented the principle of helping the poor. For example, opening an institution to care for orphans and mentally retarded people, treating diseases for the poor, and opening a free vocational training center. If you want to go on a free trip, you can’t miss it.
