The surrounding garden of the church has a lot of century-old trees that have been near the cathedral over its many years.

Thu Duc Church was designed according to Gothic architecture. All the main doors and windows, both inside and out, are shaped like pointed archs. It was built on a high and dry place. Two rows of pillars in the cathedral were decorated lightly and fluidly, although it's not as sophisticated as Roman architecture. In 1931, the church's two sides were expanded and it was widened again in 1935. Although rebuilt, it hasn't lost its architecture as a cathedral. Side view - Thu Duc Church was designed according to Gothic architecture.
