However, in general, My Son is built on a quadrangular ground, divided into 3 parts, the base of the tower, the tower body, and the top part all represent a certain meaning.<br /> In addition to seeing and hearing about the schedule of the temples here, the best thing that you definitely cannot miss is the magical Siva dances. These dances appear in the middle of the wild mountains vividly and flexibly.<br /> The introduction information about My Son holy site can not give you a complete understanding of this place anyway. Maybe you should plan to come here even once, to discover this valuable heritage together.<br /> My Son Sanctuary is likened to the ancient towers of the Champa people, which is the ideal space for a center imbued with Cham Pa religious identity. the beauty of a lost civilization.<br /> In the My Son valley area, there are now more than 50 different large and small towers, there are single standing towers separate, there are twin towers, triple towers standing in clusters, many towers have been weathered by time but traces of the background The tower is still intact. My Son relic was discovered by the French in the 19th century, located in a valley surrounded by mountains and dense forests, from which many scientists, archaeologists come to study and discover the mysterious history of this thousand-year-old tower. <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/linanguyen/245wMbf3j7sanaigsRqTNCUKp5Apxy1v63cmHiXAGWowhBbLpccoBfy94u9uUe2ZZqLBr.jpg" alt="z3021016392521_635171634126a5c2d649cbb91573ce9d.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/linanguyen/245wMbf3j7sanaigsRqTNCUKp5Apxy1v63cmHiXAGWowhBbLpccoBfy94u9uUe2ZZqLBr.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/linanguyen/245wMbf3j7sanaigsRqTNCUKp5Apxy1v63cmHiXAGWowhBbLpccoBfy94u9uUe2ZZqLBr.jpg 2x" /> <p dir="auto">The reliefs and stone statues here partly show the beliefs and aspirations of the Cham people.
