INFORMATION
We travel about 50km from Hoi An to My
Son sanctuary. It comprises many Champa temples, in a valley roughly two
kilometers wide, surrounded by two mountain ranges. It was the site of
religious ceremony of kings of the Champa dynasty, and was also a burial
place of Champa royals and national heroes. The My Son temple complex is
one of the foremost temple complexes of Hinduism in South East Asia and
is the foremost heritage site of this nature in Vietnam. Though the
complex has been destroyed over time, we still see many majestic ancient
ruins of temples in the area. We also spend time to visit a silk
handicraft village along the Thu Bon River on the way back to Hoi An.
