Every pilgrimage is a special journey, a return to the heart to seek peace, blessings and deep faith. The journey to the Pilgrimage Center of Our Lady of Nui Cúi - a sacred meeting place of millions of Catholic hearts - is also such a journey. It is not just about moving to a location, but an experience that requires the tranquility of the soul, a space for contemplation and connection.
Understanding that, many pilgrims do not only seek a simple place to stay, but also long for a true place of rest - a place to rest after a long day, a place quiet enough for the prayers to still echo, and a place where gentle nature soothes the soul. Charmingly located by Tri An Lake, just 10 minutes away from Our Lady of Nui Cúi, Nomia Garden Retreats is built to become that peaceful place, an ideal stopover to complete your journey of faith.
Our Lady of Nui Cung – The Rendezvous of Faith and Peace
Located on the highest hill of Gia Tan commune, Thong Nhat district - now Thong Nhat commune, Dong Nai province, the Pilgrimage Center of Our Lady of Mount Cúi has quickly become one of the largest Marian centers in Vietnam. With a majestic and gentle 50-meter-high statue of the Virgin Mary standing on the top of the hill overlooking the poetic Tri An lake, this place has a beauty that is both majestic and strangely peaceful.
Pilgrims come here not only to admire the magnificent architecture, but mainly to offer prayers and wishes to the Mother, to seek protection and blessings. The large, airy space along with the sacredness of this place creates a peaceful atmosphere, helping people easily put aside the worries of daily life to return to the core values of faith. After hours of praying, attending Mass, and walking the Way of the Cross, the body and soul need a worthy place to be restored.
Nomia Garden Retreats – An Ideal Place to Stay Just Minutes Away from Our Lady of Nui Cui
One of the top concerns of pilgrims is the convenience of travel. It is wonderful to know that Nomia Garden Retreats is located in an extremely ideal location, only a short distance from the Pilgrimage Center of Our Lady of Nui Cúi, about 10 minutes drive.

What Awaits Pilgrims At Nomia Garden Retreats?
We understand that the needs of a pilgrim are different from those of a regular tourist. You are not looking for excitement, but for tranquility. You are not looking for glamour, but for comfort and sophistication. Nomia Garden Retreats is designed to meet exactly those needs.
A Quiet Space for Contemplation
After hours in crowded places, your soul needs a moment of silence. Nomia is a true garden retreat, completely separated from the noise. Instead of crowded hotel corridors, you will return to your private bungalow, surrounded by trees and gardens. The sounds you will hear will be birds chirping, the rustling of leaves and the stillness of the lake. This is the ideal environment for you to continue to contemplate, read prayers, or simply sit still to feel the blessings you have just received.
Energy Recovery for Both Body and Spirit
Pilgrimage sometimes requires a lot of movement and walking. A deep sleep and a rested body are extremely important. Each bungalow at Nomia is equipped with a soft bed, a comfortable bathroom and a private relaxation space. You can soak in the bathtub, sit on the porch reading a good book, or simply take a good night's sleep in the fresh air, so that the next morning you wake up with a refreshed spirit and a body full of energy.
Clean Cuisine and Dedicated, Understanding Service
We believe that nourishing the body is also part of the spiritual journey. The restaurant at Nomia serves dishes made from fresh, clean, locally sourced ingredients. The menu is diverse, nutritionally balanced, helping you have delicious and light meals. In particular, we understand and are willing to meet special requests such as preparing an early breakfast for guests going to the temple, or serving light dishes. Nomia's staff always serve with a respectful, gentle and dedicated attitude, ensuring you always feel comfortable and cared for.
The Peaceful Gardens – Where the Journey of Contemplation Continues
The journey of prayer does not necessarily end when you leave Nui Cui. The entire campus of Nomia Garden Retreats is a large meditation garden. You can take a leisurely stroll along the small paths, find a bench under the shade of a tree to read the Bible, or sit quietly by the lake to watch the sunset. It is these moments of being immersed in nature and tranquility that will help you connect more deeply with your faith and with yourself.
