 |
| Abel's Tower is what the parishioners of Hamlet 5, Nghi Phu Commune (Vinh City) call the tower they "designed" themselves to celebrate Christmas this year. |
 |
| The tower has the same shape as the Eiffel Tower in France, 34m high. This is the second time the people of Hamlet 5 have made this unique tower. Previously, in 2007, the parishioners here also made an elaborate tower with a height of 17m. |
 |
| The tower was erected with 300 meters of bamboo poles and rattan poles, 100kg of 3mm steel, 200 iron nails, 80 neon lights, 1000m of colorful flashing lights, and 3 million VND for paint. |
 |
| Mr. Nguyen Van Nam, the head of Hamlet 5, said that the total cost to complete the tower was more than 60 million VND. Notably, the tower was made entirely thanks to the solidarity and efforts of the parishioners of Hamlet 5, Dong Kien Parish, Yen Dai parish. |
 |
| The tower was started on December 4 and completed on December 18. |
 |
| The bamboo poles and rattan poles are meticulously and beautifully painted in gray. |
 |
| The people "underground" are responsible for installing bulbs, wires... |
 |
| The people in the “sky” are careful with every job they do, such as tying steel wires to ensure the strength between the tower sections. |
 |
| Most of the parishioners in the village came to the tower construction area to watch and support both spiritually and physically. |
 |
| At about 6:00 p.m. on December 18, the tower was completed and began to shine brightly. |
 |
| The pine tree is an indispensable part of Christmas day, the parishioners cleverly inserted the pine tree into the core of the tower. |
 |
| The tower seen upside down from the bottom inside is shimmering and magical. |
