Vietnam: Notre Dame Cathedral before its spires were added, Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) (early 20th century).

Saigon Notre-Dame Basilica, officially Basilica of Our Lady of The Immaculate Conception is a cathedral located in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon). Established by French colonists, the cathedral was constructed between 1863 and 1880. It has two bell towers, reaching a height of 58 meters (190 feet). Former Emperor B?o Ð?i made Saigon the capital of the State of Vietnam in 1949 with himself as head of state. After the Vi?t Minh gained control of North Vietnam in 1954, it became common to refer to the Saigon government as 'South Vietnam'. The government was renamed the Republic of Vietnam when B?o Ð?i was deposed by his Prime Minister Ngo Dinh Diem in a fraudulent referendum in 1955. Saigon and Cholon, an adjacent city with many Sino-Vietnamese residents, were combined into an administrative unit called Ðô Thành Sài Gòn (Capital City Saigon).
