Vice Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Chu Xuan Dung speaks at a meeting on March 5. (Photo: VNA) Hanoi (VNA) – Religious establishments, relic sites and tourist attractions in Hanoi will re-open on March 8 with preventive measures being still in place after they were temporarily closed to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, Vice Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Chu Xuan Dung said at a meeting on March 5. Religious activities should be downsized in their scale, and organised online to prevent the spread of the disease, he stressed. Dung ordered localities to enhance inspection and mete out harsh punishments to any violations of pandemic prevention, particularly restaurants, coffee shops, tea stalls and karaoke parlours, among others who resume operations without getting permission. Additionally, drastic measures must be deployed to monitor people coming from pandemic-hit areas, while online health declarations using QR code should be carried out from March 5, he added. The capital city has gone through 17 days without new COVID-19 infections. Thirty-five cases have been logged in the city since the latest COVID-19 wave hit the country on January 27. Although the pandemic has been put under control, the city needs to strictly follow pandemic prevention measures set out by the Government, the municipal Party Committee and the municipal People’s Committee. The communications work will be promoted to raise public awareness of the prevention measures, particularly the Ministry of Health’s 5K message: 5K message: khau trang (face mask), khu khuan (disinfection), khoang cach (distance), khong tu tap (no gathering) and khai bao y te (health declaration)./.

The restoration of Da Lat’s abandoned monastery

Residents and tourists alike have shared their disappointment over the removal of large portions of the Franciscaines Misionnaires de Marie – an abandoned monastery in the Central Highlands city of Da Lat – during the site’s renovation. Spanning more than seven hectares, the chapel and residential quarters of Franciscaines Misionnaires de Marie sit between Tran Quang Dieu and Hung Vuong Streets in Da Lat, which is the capital of Lam Dong Province. For years, the iconic chapel has been an inspiration for Vietnamese artists and photographers, being reimagined in countless works of art. The mission is located in an area surrounded by pine trees near the center of Da Lat. Photo: Duc Tho / Tuoi Tre A ruined complex According to writer Nguyen Vinh Nguyen, the Benedictine complex was designed and built by French architects Alexandre Leonard and Paul Veysseyre in the late 30s and early 40s, marking the onset of Benedictine missionaries from the West making their way to Vietnam. In 1954, these missionaries left the complex in the hands of Franciscans nuns before moving to Hue in the central region to set up the Thien An Monastery. In the following years, the nuns enlisted Vietnamese architect Pham Khanh Chu to design additional classrooms behind the existing complex. According to Tran Ngoc Trac, former head of Lam Dong Province Arts and Literature Association, the mission was known as Viet Nu Commercial School in 1969. In 1979, the seven-hectare complex was handed over to the government. Machines are brought to the mission to remove severely destroyed areas. Photo: Duc Tho / Tuoi Tre Over the following decades, the school’s two classroom blocks and residential building served as the province’s supplementary school, then as the Lam Vien Hotel, and eventually Tran Phu High School. In the 1980s, another building was built between the two blocks. The chapel and monastery were next used as a warehouse, sports hall, and …
