Located in Long Thoi Commune, Tieu Can District, Tra Vinh Province, Bau Hoang Church is a prominent religious site and a peaceful retreat for those exploring the Mekong Delta.

The church features Western-style architecture, with a simple façade, a pointed roof, and arched windows. Inside, natural light filters through a vibrant array of stained-glass windows, casting soft hues that enhance the atmosphere of solemnity and serenity. Though modest in size, the church is notable for its harmonious integration with the surrounding landscape.
