Tour Hoi An – My Son Sanctuary – Hoi An
 My Son - the
address that attracts numerous Southeast Asia and Oriental art
researchers , is the Sanctuary of the ancient Champa kingdom in
the past. It was built from the 4th to 13th centuries in
dedication to Shiva God of Destruction and Inventory in
Hinduism. My Son was the most abundant architectural complex
representative of Champa arts with over 70 temples, however,
about 20 temples and towers have been preserved quite well.
 The
air of mystery in My Son comes from the towers built of bricks
adorned with sandstone. They are joined together with no glue
and They have stood up to sunlight and rain for thousands of
years. In 1999 My Son was recognized by Unesco as World Cultural
Heritage. Thus now it is ranked with other renowned relics in
the Southeast Asia like Angkor Wat in Cambodia, Pagan (Burma)
and Borodur (Indonesia).
