Notre Dame Cathedral or Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral is a name that people shorten for convenient use. The full name of this project is the Cathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception. The church is 91m long, 35.5m wide, and the main dome is 21m high. The two bell towers on both sides are nearly 57m high. Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral was built with classic French architecture, designed by talented architect J.Bourard. The outside space of the church is very large and airy, the inside is majestic and ancient. The history of Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral began with the French war of invasion at the end of the 19th century. The French government at that time wanted to build a large church to serve the community and religious activities for the government. French government and army. The first church was located on Ngo Duc Ke Street but was too small so the French Admiral Bonnard decided to build a larger church. Construction of this Saigon Cathedral began on March 28, 1863. After two years, the church was completed. In 1895, the French built two more bell towers. Around the tower there are six small bronze bells. At the top of each tower is a cross that is 3.5m high, 2m wide and weighs 600kg. At this time, the height of the building, from the ground to the highest point, was 60.5m. The French also cast a bronze statue of Pigneau de Behaine (also known as Bishop Adran) holding the hand of Prince Canh, the eldest son of King Gia Long. This statue is located in front of the church. In 1945, the statue was destroyed but its base still remains. In 1959, Bishop Joseph Pham Van Thien ordered the statue of Our Lady of Peace from Rome. On February 7, 1959, Cardinal Agagiianian came from Rome to solemnly inaugurate the statue. Since then, the church has been called Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral by the people. Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral was built with the neo-Romanesque Revival (or Neo-Romanesque) architectural style. This was a building style popular around the mid-19th century, inspired by 11th and 12th century Romanesque architecture. Buildings in this style tend to feature arches and portholes. simple disign. During the construction of Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral, all materials from cement, steel to screws were brought from France. The exterior of the building is made of bricks produced in Marseille. The advantage of this type of brick is that it is bare, not plastered, not mossy, and still retains its bright pink color after decades. The entire cathedral has 56 stained glass windows produced in Chartres province (France). The foundation of the cathedral is specially designed to bear 10 times the weight of the entire architectural volume. And a very special thing is that the church does not have fences or walls like the churches around Saigon Gia Dinh at that time. The interior of the cathedral has two main rectangular rows, with six rows on each side representing the 12 apostles. The altar of Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral is made of monolithic marble with six angels carved into the stone. The pedestal is divided into three cells, each cell is a sculpture depicting a relic. The walls are decorated with 56 glass windows depicting biblical characters or events, 31 round rose figures, 25 multicolored bulls-eye windows combined with beautiful images. All lines, edges, and patterns follow stately and elegant Roman and Gothic forms. However, out of these 56 glass doors, only 4 are still intact. The other glass doors were repaired in 1949 because they were destroyed during the war. The original design had two bell towers that were 36.6m high, had no roof and only had a narrow staircase of about 40cm. The interior is dark and the floor is lined with small pieces of wood. In 1895, the church built two more roofs to cover the 21m high bell tower designed by architect Gardes, for a total of 57m high bell tower. All six bells are hung on two bell towers. This bell was made in France and brought to Saigon in 1879. The bell is controlled electronically from below. On weekdays, Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral only rings at 5:00 a.m. and 4:15 p.m. On holidays and Sundays, the church often rings three bells. 6 bells ringing at the same time will have a very loud sound, you can even hear the bell from 10km away. Between the two bell towers is a very large clock. It was produced in 1887 and weighs 1 ton. Even though it is more than a hundred years old, the clock still operates very accurately. Paris Commune Square is located between Notre Dame Cathedral and Nguyen Du Street. In the center of the main square is where the statue of Our Lady of Peace is located. This is where visitors often stop to drink coffee, take photos, and watch pigeons. Especially on weekend mornings, many young people gather here to chat and have fun together. The image of Notre Dame Cathedral has long become a representative part of the magnificent land of Saigon. Near the church there is also the Independence Palace and the city Post Office. You can combine visiting these three famous destinations to explore Saigon to the fullest.

The US Embassy relics, also known as the "White House of the East", are the origin of sinister military and political plots aimed at long-term annexation of Vietnam. The relic site is a 5-storey building built Built in modern architecture, located at the corner of Mac Dinh Chi - Le Duan Street, Ben Nghe Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City, on a plot of land nearly 5,000 square meters. Previously, the US embassy was located at 39 Ham Nghi Street. At around 10:00 a.m. on March 30, 1963, the US embassy on Ham Nghi Street was hit with explosives by the F21 Commando team, collapsing three floors: 1, 2, 3, so the US decided to rebuild it. Construction began on the building in 1965, most of the materials and construction machinery were transported from the US, under the control of American engineers. According to the design, the building is surrounded by 7,800 Taredo stones that can withstand mines and artillery shells. The main door is equipped with thick steel, the other doors are blocked by a special thick bulletproof layer. All doors use automatic systems, including iron doors blocking the way to the upper floors. Inside the building there are 140 rooms with 200 staff serving day and night. In addition, next to the building is also built an additional row of houses called the "Norodom" area exclusively for C.I.A. employees. When inaugurated, the building had only 3 floors. At the end of 1966, two more floors and a terrace were built to serve as a landing place for helicopters. Surrounding the building is a 3m high wall, at both ends of the wall close to Le Duan Street, 2 high blockhouses are built, guarded day and night. The Embassy was completed in September 1967 with a defense system such as a fortress with 60 guards, a bomb shelter, and a radar screen system to control the facade. Immediately after the building was completed, on September 24, 1967, thousands of students flocked to the gate of the US Embassy to fight for "America to stop bombing the North", "America to go home" and issued a notice denouncing the US for "trampling and seriously violating the right to self-determination of the Southern people". But the outstanding event that happened at the US Embassy was the battle of the City Rangers during the General Offensive and Uprising in the Spring of 1968. The target of attacking the US Embassy was added on January 24, 1968 by Ngo Thanh. Van is in charge of general affairs. Ranger Team 11 took on this important mission, including captain Ut Nho (military region reconnaissance captain) and soldiers: Bay Truyen, Tuoc, Thanh, Chuc, Tran The Ninh, Chinh, Tai, Van, Duc, Cao Hoai Vinh, Mang, Sau and 2 drivers: Tran Si Hung and Ngo Van Thuan. Another equally humiliating event for the US Embassy was the chaotic escape that occurred on April 29 and 30, 1975 by the US and its accomplices. Faced with the rapid attack of the Vietnamese army and people in the historic Ho Chi Minh campaign, over 1,000 Americans and more than 5,000 pro-American Vietnamese jostled, pushed, and kicked each other to compete for a place on the terrace of the building. building to be rescued by helicopter. This relic was granted a certificate of recognition by the Ministry of Culture on June 25, 1976. Currently, the US Embassy building has been demolished and a new consulate in Ho Chi Minh City has been built, but next to it is a memorial stele forever remembering the achievements of the special forces soldiers who died in the battle. .

Nga Ba Giong relic is a revolutionary historical relic located in Hamlet 5, Xuan Thoi Thuong commune, Hoc Mon district. Surrounded by three roads: Phan Van Hon, Nguyen Van Bua and Provincial Road 19. Nga Ba Giong relic site is a memorial site for historical events in two wars against foreign invaders. Recognized as a national historical site in 2002. Giong Junction (also fully known as Giong Bang Lang Junction) is located in Xuan Thoi Tay village, part of 18 old betel garden villages formed from 1698 to 1731. For a long time, Giong Junction is a place with a folk name that has entered the history of the hometown of 18 betel garden villages of Hoc Mon - Ba Diem. Legend has it that in the past, this place was a relatively high land and a place where many linden trees grew, so this place got its name from there. After the Southern Uprising (November 23, 1940) failed, the French colonialists increased their repression and fierce terror against the revolutionary movement in the Hoc Mon - Ba Diem region. They set up three shooting ranges in Hoc Mon to kill Party leaders and patriotic comrades from their hometown of Hoc Mon and surrounding areas. Giong intersection is the third shooting range to record the heinous crimes of the French enemy and his henchmen against the people of Hoc Mon. Learning from the experience of 2 previous shooting ranges (1 at the old theater in the center of Hoc Mon District, 1 next to the well behind Hoc Mon Hospital today), they executed public shootings, forcing people to come and watch for the purpose of intimidation. revolutionary spirit of Hoc Mon people. But that firing squad backfired. The Hoc Mon people witnessed with their own eyes the cruelty of the French colonialists and the noble sacrifices of the communist soldiers, so their patriotic fire flared up even more fiercely. . For this third shooting range, they did not dare to build it near the center of the District anymore, but moved it to the Giong Junction area as a desolate, sparsely populated area to avoid people's resistance. Here, they built a shooting range with a solid mound of land 12m long, 2.2m high, in front of which were planted 6 shooting posts, each 1.7m high, the shooting direction facing the field (Ba Tram Lac). In 1941, here they secretly executed many times without letting the people see, hundreds of communist soldiers and patriots were killed by them. With the extremely sacred historical significance of Giong Junction, the place that marked the barbaric crimes of the French invaders, the place that demonstrated the indomitable fighting will and noble sacrifices of our comrades and compatriots later on. the Southern Uprising (November 23, 1940); After the complete liberation of the South (April 30, 1975), Hoc Mon district quickly restored and embellished the Nga Giong Junction revolutionary historical relic site to educate traditional generations of youth. This place has become a tourist attraction and a place to organize traditional festivals during major annual holidays of Hoc Mon district and the city, especially the anniversary of Southern Uprising Day (November 23).

Complete liberation of the People of 18 Betel Garden Villages. After defeating Chi Hoa Fort, the French colonialists built a 3-storey wooden house here to use as a military post. When Tran Tu Ca took office as Governor of the Palace, he used the Station as the Palace of Binh Long district. Originally a cunning drunkard of the French colonialists, Tran Tu Ca was led by a group led by Mr. Phan Van Hon (Quan Hon) and Nguyen Van Qua (Chanh Lanh Binh) of nearly 1,000 insurgents who came to burn the District Palace, captured and head cut off in the middle of the market. That was February 8, 1885, At Dau Tet. Afterwards, Hoc Mon District Palace was rebuilt with a blue stone foundation, brick walls, and a defense system from the upper floors to the fence. The architecture is similar to the Military Fort, so the locals call it Hoc Mon Fort. Tran took over from Tran Tu Ca as Governor of Ngon district, moving to Tra District and then Tho District. This was a long period of time when the people of the Hoc Mon region suffered from many cruel and despicable scenes from the French colonialists and their oligarchic henchmen mentioned above. With the indomitable tradition of Hoc Mon people. On June 4, 1930, around 6 a.m. in front of the District Palace, hundreds of Hoc Mon people protested demanding "abolition of poll tax, reduction of license and market taxes, and granting land to poor farmers." Tra District invited the leaders into the Palace to negotiate, but they cunningly arrested them, including Mr. Le Van Uoi (Secretary of Tan Thoi Nhi Commune), who was the leader of the protest. People were undaunted and fiercely demanded that Tea District release those detained. The protest group became more and more crowded, the fighting spirit spread somewhat, causing Tra District to give in. On the one hand, they released the detained people, on the other hand, they called the officials in Saigon for help. 2 hours later, the struggle was led by two men, Blachole and Nobbot, who opened fire on the protest group, causing many casualties. But the most impressive historical event at Hoc Mon District Palace was the Southern Uprising on November 23, 1940. Hoc Mon Fort is very solid, built of green stone like a fortress, about 15 meters high, has a gun emplacement and a defense system with battlements guarded by a platoon of green soldiers. On November 22, 1940, France reinforced one more platoon to deal with the situation. On the afternoon of November 22, 1940, Mr. Do Van Coi's army broke into the town, disguised as civilians, ambushed behind the Station waiting for orders to rob the Station. Another army wing has the task of destroying bridges, cutting down trees blocking roads, and occupying offices and houses... The army wing from Phuoc Vinh An, Tan Thong, Tan An Hoi, Tan Phu Trung is led by Mr. Pham Van Sang and Dang Cong Binh commanded, started from Ben Do hamlet, attacked the house, killed 1 person, collected 4 guns, and took control of the situation here (Tan Phu Trung). Immediately this army was ordered to pull back to Hoc Mon. The Long Tuy Thuong army was commanded by Mr. Bui Van Hoat. The army of General Long Tuy Trung was commanded by Mr. Do Van Day and Le Binh Dang. At around 24:00 on the night of November 22, 1940, the sound of artillery fire had not yet been heard in Saigon. After consulting, the army commanders united to attack the enemy's post. Immediately the troops headed straight to Fort Hoc Mon, where District Chief Bui Ngoc Tho resided. Two insurgents named Nghe and Kinh volunteered to enter the front gate and sacrificed their lives. Insurgents from all directions rushed into the Fort like water bursting its banks. Faced with the power of the insurgents and the masses, the soldiers in the Station no longer had the spirit to resist and fled in disarray. The insurgents completely occupied the inside of the station, but upstairs, the enemy still stubbornly used guns to shoot sporadically, at the same time calling Saigon and Thu Dau Mot for emergency help. Because he was eager to capture the name of Tho District, comrade Do Van Day climbed up to the upper floor of the Station by clinging to the gutter. Halfway up, he was hit by bullets, the comrade fell and died later. The battle was at a standstill when enemy reinforcements arrived. Unable to hold out, the insurgents withdrew from the town, dispersed to the villages, the armed forces withdrew to Ben Do hamlet (Tan Phu Trung) and then moved to My Hanh hamlet (Duc Hoa). Although the attack on Hoc Mon Fort (later called Hoc Mon District Palace) failed, it left a deep impression in the hearts of all civilians admiring the courage of revolutionary soldiers in the fight against colonialism. steal the country. During the historic Ho Chi Minh campaign, at 7:00 a.m. on April 30, 1975, Hoc Mon town was completely liberated, the National flag fluttered above the District Palace, where District Chief Nguyen Nhu Sang and his gang sai has been running away since last night. Today, Hoc Mon District Palace is chosen as the District Museum, where many documents are displayed, illustrating the ups and downs of historical periods as well as the revolutionary fighting spirit of the army and people in Hoc Mon district over the past two years. resistance war against French colonialism and American imperialism. A monument placed in front of the Hoc Mon District Palace relic represents the indomitable sacrifice of the army and people of 18 Betel Garden Villages, recognized as a national historical and cultural relic.

The first tunnel at the edge of the forest has an underground well that provides drinking and living water for the entire tunnel area. The well is 15m deep and clear. The tunnel system consists of 3 floors, from the "backbone" radiating countless long and short branches that connect with each other, some branches reaching out to the Saigon River. The first floor is 3m above the ground, resistant to artillery shells and the weight of tanks and armored vehicles. The second floor is 5m above the ground and can withstand small bombs. The last floor is 8 to 10 meters above the ground, which is very safe. The way up and down between the basement floors is arranged with secret hatch covers. Above is discreet camouflage, looking like extruded termite mounds, along the tunnel there are vents. Connected to the tunnels, there are large tunnels for resting, a place to store weapons and food, a well, a Hoang Cam kitchen, a command tunnel, a surgical tunnel... There are also large tunnels and roofs. The roof is airy and cleverly camouflaged for watching movies and performing arts. Also from this tunnel, the US Crimp (trap) operation with 3,000 troops, Sedarfall operation with 12,000 soldiers, with tanks and maximum support aircraft, aimed to turn Cu Chi into a "destruction free zone". destroy" has been smashed. Cu Chi truly deserves the title "land of steel and bronze" through 20 years of persistent fighting. With the value and stature of the victory summed up by the blood and efforts of tens of thousands of soldiers and compatriots, the Cu Chi tunnel base has been recognized by the Ministry of Culture as a special national monument. Since the return of peace, tens of thousands of tourist groups with millions of people of all skin colors and ethnicities around the world have visited Cu Chi tunnels. From General Secretaries of the Communist Party, Heads of State, to politicians, generals, scientists, philosophers, writers, journalists, American veterans... have set foot in the tunnels with all emotions and admiration for the heroic land. A politician in the Federal Republic of Germany said: "For many years I have been skeptical about the struggle of the Vietnamese people. How can a small and poor country defeat a large and rich country like America? But when I came here, going through the 70m tunnel, I was able to answer that question myself."
