Built in 1886, this neo-Gothic cathedral was inspired by the Notre-Dame Cathedral in Paris. Its interior showcases intricate and luxurious gold embellishments combined with vibrant stained glass, making it as breathtakingly beautiful as any cathedral in Europe.

The Interior of St. Joseph's Cathedral in Hanoi
The interior of St. Joseph's Cathedral is a stunning blend of neo-Gothic elegance and traditional charm.


Right across from St. Joseph's Cathedral, there's Cong Cafe.


The interior is furnished with small wooden chairs, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.


From Cong Cafe, you can enjoy a view of St. Joseph's Cathedral.



Due to its prime location, the cafe is very popular among tourists, especially Koreans!
The cafe has three floors, but I always sat on the second floor whenever I visited.
Here, you don't order at the first floor counter. Instead, you can take a seat on any floor, and a staff member will come to take your order. Payment is made when you leave, so don’t try to pay when ordering—they won’t accept it!

As for the menu, I highly recommend anything related to coconut coffee~!
