Phát Diệm Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Kim Son District, Vietnam
Located in Ninh Binh Province, this stone and wood religious building combines both Vietnamese and European architectural styles in its construction.
The cathedral took 24 years to complete, from 1875 to 1899, under the guidance of Father Tran Luc who directed its construction.
The cathedral incorporates Vietnamese design elements such as curved roofs, stone dragons, and traditional temple motifs throughout its structure.
The religious complex includes five chapels, three grottoes, a bell tower, and a pastoral center accessible to both worshippers and visitors.
The cathedral displays statues of religious figures wearing traditional Vietnamese clothing, including Mary depicted in an ao dai dress.
