http://andresalvador.smugmug.com/gallery/2556612_JnAau/ The Vietnamese people claim that this church is a copy of the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris but in a smaller scale. This was built in the 18th. century. Althoug not as rich in architectural features as the original one it maintains the nice proportions on the exterior. The Vietnamese Notre Dame Church is located across the historic Central Post Office of Ho Chi Min City. http://www.smugmug.com/img/feed-icon.png Architecture Wed, 30 Nov -001 00:00:00 -0800 Wed, 07 Mar 2007 20:49:49 -0800 http://www.smugmug.com/ Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
