Interestingly, while Vildieu spent most of his working life designing French buildings in Vietnam, he early on designed a Vietnamese building in France for the 1889 Universal Exposition. This pavilion was modeled on the porch of the Pagoda of Quan Yen, and was referred to at the Exposition as the "Palace of Annan and Tonkin".
