The apparitions of The Vang

La Virgen María apareció vestida con un ao dai (traje tradicional vietnamita) y les dijo: «No temáis. Yo estoy con vosotros.» Les enseñó a usar hojas de un árbol para curar sus enfermedades.

In 1802, the persecution ended and the faithful built a sanctuary in La Vang. In 1961, Pope John XXIII raised the sanctuary to the lower basilica. Today, The Vang is the most important Marian sanctuary in Vietnam.

The Virgin of La Vang appeared 18 times to comfort the persecuted.
