My Son Sanctuary has long been the last relic to recall the once-flourishing kingdom of Cham in central Vietnam. Many tourists think that My Son is similar to Angkor Wat in Cambodia. But the truth is not so.


My Son is smaller but even older than Angkor Wat.
And more specifically, My Son is the holy land of the Cham people in Vietnam. Therefore, each relic will have its own unique cultural, artistic, and spiritual beliefs.


Follow me to discover My Son in particular as well as the religious customs of Hindus in general and listen to stories, legends, and myths about this ancient nation.
