    My Son Sanctuary

    Our guide will pick you up from your hotel and depart for My Son, one of the most important sites of the Champa Kingdom. Nestled in a beautiful valley and surrounded by mountain ranges, My Son is one of the most stunning sights in Central Vietnam, located just 80 kilometers from Da Nang. Whilst excavating My Son, letters were found revealing that the complex had been used for offerings and the worship of the Hindu god since the 4th century. In 1999, UNESCO declared My Son a World Heritage Site. The My Son Sanctuary is a remarkable architectural ensemble that developed over ten centuries, vividly illustrating the spiritual and political life during a significant phase in Southeast Asia. Originally built with wood, the temples in My Son were completely destroyed by fire in the 6th century and restored in the 7th century by Sambhuvarman, who rebuilt them with locally made bricks. By the 13th century, more than 70 similar temples had been constructed.
