Description

For more than 100 years, Al Noor Mosque has been a weekly prayer destination for local and foreign Muslim believers.
In the early 19th century, Indian merchants came to Vietnam to live and trade. To meet religious needs, in 1885, the Indian community here began to build the Al Noor mosque.

In 1890, the cathedral was officially put into operation. The Mosque has experienced many ups and downs in history. In the years 1964 - 1973, the Mosque had to be closed because of the war. However, the Mosque has never been bombings.

The land area of the cathedral is more than 700m2 with a ceremony area of more than 200m2.
