Hanoi Cathedral, located near Lake Huanjian, was built in 1886. It is 130 years old. It is the oldest Cathedral in Hanoi. It is said that it was modelled on Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. Hanoi Cathedral is the most representative French architecture in Hanoi, which has the European medieval style. After many wars, the French incorporated Vietnam into their colonial system through the Badnow Treaty in June 1884. Two years after the signing of the Treaty of Badnow, the French built the cathedral in Hanoi. French colonization of Vietnam in 71 years, but also around the Sword Lake, those French buildings, that French culture influence Vietnam everywhere. In Hanoi, we took a taxi from the Confucian Temple to the cathedral. One of the most disgusting things happened. The black taxi driver robbed us of our money. Before going to Vietnam to do homework, there are many donkey friends reminding Vietnam that social order is not good, to be vigilant against black taxis, they are unreliable. A taxi must be taken by a regular taxi company. The name and license plate characteristics of the regular taxi company are also given. When we came out of the Confucian Temple in Hanoi, we found that there was a taxi there, so we took it to the cathedral. When I got on the bus, I found that there was something wrong with the meter. The words jumped very fast. When we arrived at the cathedral and paid Vietnam Shield, the black taxi driver robbed us of our money. Not too much money was stolen. That's 50 yuan in RMB, but it was disgusting.

    Vietnam is in the Han cultural circle, and since ancient times, it has been in addition to the faith of Buddha, Taoism and Confucian culture. In modern 1858, the Xianfeng Dynasty brought Christianity and Catholicism into the Central and Southern Peninsula with the French colonial period. Vietnam coexisted with multi-religious and multi-faith. St. Joseph's Cathedral, also known as Hanoi Cathedral, was completed on Christmas Eve 1886 during the French colonial period. Free free visit to prayer during the day, and wedding activities are more special, which is now a popular scene in Hanoi.

    Interesting place of history and the cathedral has its unique look and color. The inside is plain for worship. The square is busy surrounded by cafes and restaurants. Beware of crook inside the cathedral pretending to be a teacher and working for the red Cross. Main interest of the cathedral is for photography
