Cua Bac Church is one of the most beautiful Catholic churches in Hanoi, built by the French in the 1930s. Unlike the Gothic style of St. Joseph's Cathedral, this church features an Eclectic design that incorporates Art Deco and traditional Vietnamese roofing elements. Its distinctive yellow walls and high clock tower make it a landmark in the Ba Dinh district. The interior is simple yet elegant, providing a peaceful space for prayer and reflection. It is located directly opposite the Cua Bac (North Gate) of the Imperial Citadel. The church is famous for its choir and is a central hub for the local Catholic community. It is a great site for those interested in colonial architecture and religious history.
