Domaine de Marie Church
Nhà thờ Domaine de Marie
A pink French-style convent church on a hill northwest of the city. Its garden is peaceful, and nuns sell handicrafts here.
Domaine de Marie Church was built between 1940 and 1943 on a small hill northwest of the city center. Its pink walls and dark roof combine French architecture with the sloping roofs of Central Highlands longhouses, making it one of Da Lat's most photogenic churches. The convent is run by a Catholic sisterhood. The grounds include a statue of the Virgin Mary and gardens, and the wife of a serving Governor-General of French Indochina is buried here. On one side, nuns sell hand-embroidered goods, sweaters and preserved fruit, with the proceeds going to charity. Entry is free. It is about 10 minutes by taxi from Xuan Huong Lake, and it can be combined with the Crazy House.
