My Son

My Son is in a valley about 2km each side, 70km southwest of Danang. In the 4th century King Bhadravarman I ordered the building in this remote area of temples and towers dedicated to the power of deities, hence turning My Son into the religious center of the kingdom of Champa.

There were about 70 monuments in different styles in My Son, but less then 20 remains due to wars and the passing of time. They date was from the 7th century. A half-day visiting My Son is just enough so please do add this to your Vietnam holidays.
