Cathedral of Notre-Dame

1863-80; belltowers added 1895

Saigon, Vietnam

Although guidebooks often describe Notre-Dame as Romanesque or Roman, it is obviously a standard Gothic Revival church with rounded Romanesque-style windows instead of pointed ones.

The church only became a cathedral in 1962.
