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.

Because this is not only a harmonious and unique combination of Eastern and Western architectural art, but also a miracle that our ancestors left behind for future generations. Phat Diem Stone Church was built in the late 19th century by Phat Diem Parish Priest Peter Tran Luc (also known as Uncle Sau) - who was appointed as Phat Diem Parish Priest in 1865 after many years of research and completion of the outline. draw up plans and concentrate financial and material resources. The church is made of mainly stone and wood. On each stone and wooden slab, flowers bloom with exquisite carvings. Most notably, the art of stone sculpture is extremely soft and flexible, with pieces of stone only 3.5cm thick. The entire architectural complex consists of 9 rafters with 9 different stages of workers, so each rafters has a distinct cultural feature, reflecting the rich aesthetics of skilled craftsmen. Furthermore, the church was built entirely of stone without the need for a reinforced concrete core. The most difficult part of this project is the foundation treatment. Because Kim Son is inherently a muddy alluvial land, Parish Priest Peter Tran Luc had to exploit and transport thousands of tons of stone from a mountain in Thanh Hoa to prevent subsidence, including blocks of stone weighing up to 20 kg. ton. At the same time, Mr. Luc also exploited and transported hundreds of ironwood trees from Nghe An mountain forests to build the project. However, what makes cultural researchers and architects fascinated about the Phat Diem Cathedral complex is the harmonious combination of Eastern pagoda architecture with Western Gothic architecture. Mr. Sau is the one who designed and created the church with extremely new details. It could also be because he was not a Christian but a Buddhist, so in his design, he had a very ingenious combination of Western church architecture and curved roof architecture like that of a communal house. in Buddhism. The artistic quintessence at Phat Diem stone church also clearly demonstrates the harmony between stone carving art and Vietnamese wood carving art, such as the symbol of the cross (symbol of Catholicism) sitting on the lotus (symbol of the Catholic religion). Buddhist symbols), Buddhist "swastika" letters engraved on rosary flowers, stone and wood reliefs carved with images of Jesus and saints; In which the saints dressed in Vietnamese style look so vivid but close, as familiar as watching folk paintings; The stone pillar carved in the shape of a lotus flower represents the stages of "birth - old age - illness - death" according to Buddhist philosophy.

It can be said that Phat Diem Stone Cathedral is an interference, a harmonious and sophisticated combination of Western church architecture and traditional Eastern architecture. Catholicism brings faith to people, but the architectural style and worship space with images of communal houses and pagodas are deeply ingrained in the subconscious of Asians in general and Vietnamese people in particular, creating peace and protection, this is also a symbol of the meeting between Catholicism and the religious traditions of the Vietnamese people from a very early age.

The bird garden is a living space for many species of birds such as storks, storks, teal, warblers,... especially two rare species in the red book, cranes and phoenixes. The towering limestone mountains silhouetted against the blue water and flocks of birds passing through the branches create a peaceful and poetic scene that is rare to find anywhere else. The best time to visit the bird garden is autumn, when the weather is cold, around 5pm when the birds return from looking for food. However, if you can't arrange the time, you can come at 5:00 am - 7:00 am or 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm to watch the birds fly, or 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm to return to Hanoi in time for the day. If you have more time, you should fully visit other attractions at Thung Nham Bird Park, such as: Mermaid Cave, Garden Area, Aquarium Cave, Moving Banyan Tree, Valley of Love,...
