Exploring My Son Sanctuary : World Heritage Site of Vietnam



The map of My Son Relic map is divided into 5 sections where we started with site B-C-D where the main Champa kingdom complexes are located.











There found a statue of God Shiva located in site B and this site is also the oldest construction of My Son.













Then you may move on to site A which create the most important temple with site B but it was destroyed during the war in August 1969.
















Follow the path, you will see site G which are in conservation. Site G have architecture similar to Khmer kingdom like Angkor Wat. I can only catch a glimpse from the walking path.














Continue the path to site E-F which has huge complex structure where a stone depicting God Brahma was found at site E. Before leaving the sanctuary,












Just drop by to site H which is another temple destroy during the war that left only the western wall of the main temple. We complete the sanctuary in 1.5 hours before proceeding to Hoi An.
